July Designated as American Grown Flower and Foliage Month: Supporting Local Growers.

The U.S. Senate supports designating July 2022 as “American Grown Flower and Foliage Month.” This initiative aims to promote the purchase of locally grown floral products, thereby supporting American farmers, small businesses, and jobs, and strengthening the national economy. Citizens are encouraged to choose domestically grown flowers, which can lead to fresher products and support for local communities.
Key points
Support for local farmers and small businesses: Buying U.S.-grown flowers supports American producers and creates jobs.
Fresher products: Locally grown flowers are often fresher and last longer due to shorter transit times.
Economic boost: Increased demand for domestic flowers contributes to the growth of U.S. agriculture and economy.
Consumer awareness: The initiative seeks to educate consumers on the origin of their flowers and encourage domestic purchases.
