Q & A: Are you a designer or florist and wondering where can you find our flowers?
Today’s post is all about helping you find local flowers. Convenient, unique products, easy to use, that will take your designs to the next level.
Where Can I Buy Wholesale Flowers?
We sell all our wholesale flowers through the West Michigan Flower Market.
I want to introduce you to the wholesale platform that the West Michigan Flower Markets uses called Rooted Farmer.
Rooted is an online marketplace that connects local flower farmers, floral designers, and flower lovers of all kinds.
In the spring of 2023, I joined a collective flower group called the West Michigan Flower Market. A collective is just a cool term for a group of small growers and farmers. We came together to help make it easier for florists and designers to order fresh local flowers from small farms.
Put away all the individual availability lists - you can look on the Rooted Farmer platform and see all the available flowers from all the local growers in one convenient and easy-to-use place. Bunches are listed and available. No more going back and forth, Put what you want in your cart and order. Easy peasy.
Flowers are available for pick-up at the market or for a low delivery cost. The market is open Tuesday through Saturday. It couldn’t be easier.
They are working on a coming soon option for the future so you can plan ahead and see what might be blooming from the farms a few months ahead.
If you don’t have time to preorder your flowers but need some today, the market is open Tuesday through Saturday. You can shop the floor and cooler. It’s like a beautiful and floral-filled open market.

Do I have to be a florist or designer to buy flowers?
Absolutely not! Anyone can buy flowers from Long River Family Farm or the West Michigan Flower Market. Accounts on Rooted Farmer are free to make. You do not have to be a florist or designer to buy from them either.
I have a limited number of growers bunches listed on my website, small and large flower buckets, bouquets, and more. You can buy directly from me anytime!
But, if you are looking for more options, the West Michigan Flower Market is a great place to see tons of variety and the flowers of all the local growers. You can order directly from the Rooted Farmer website or stop in the market.

Fresh local flowers are like fresh local strawberries: they have a short, seasonal life. But doesn’t that make you savor them all the more?
