July 2025: American Grown Flower and Foliage Month

The U.S. Senate has designated July 2025 as “American Grown Flower and Foliage Month.” This initiative aims to encourage citizens to purchase flowers and foliage grown in the USA, thereby supporting local farmers, small businesses, and jobs, and strengthening the national economy. The goal is to raise awareness about the origin of floral products and their positive impact on local communities.
Key points
Support for American Farmers and Small Businesses: By purchasing flowers with the “Certified American Grown” label, you support local jobs and the economy.
Fresher Products: Flowers grown in the USA often reach consumers within 24-48 hours of harvest, meaning they stay fresh longer.
Increased Awareness: The initiative seeks to educate consumers about where the flowers and foliage they purchase are grown.
Strengthening Agriculture: The cultivation of flowers and foliage is recognized as a vital part of the American agricultural industry.
