KNF Flowers with Tony Gaetz of Bare MTN Farm

Flowers are reaching a diverse and appreciative customer base through farmers markets, CSAs, weddings, contactless delivery, and u-pick. This diversity is supported by the strong community of members of the Association of Specialty Cut Flower Growers. Since 1988, the ASCFG has been uniting and educating specialty cut flower growers across the globe, supplying them with accurate and up-to-date information about best practices for both the production and marketing of cut flowers. The ASCFG published the only trade magazine in North America dedicated entirely to specialty cut flowers. The connections made between growers through an ASCFG membership are priceless.
