WFFSA 25 006

Once again, I loaded up my camera and dusted off my hat for a trip to the latest edition of Wffsa’s Floral Distribution Conference. This event incorporates floral exhibits with education as it has for many years. Since I arrived a bit late, I missed the wholesaler discussion and a pitch by Lane De Vries from “That Flower Feeling”. I intentionally missed the very competitive Golf tournament as I do not play golf. But I am aware that many do and find it fun. Therefore, my evening began with the kickoff party and access to the floral exhibits. This is where importers, growers and support companies have a chance to show off their products and meet face to face with current and potential buyers.
