Every week I hear some version of this:
“I love what you’re building. I’m planning to grow flowers this year… I’ll sign up once I have blooms ready.”
And I understand that instinct completely.
But here’s the truth:
The best time to join Local Blooms is before you have flowers to sell.
Let me tell you why.
1. You Lock In the Best Membership Rate
Our FIRST500 grower promotion ends February 28.
That rate will not be offered again this year.
If you’re planning to grow and sell flowers at any point this season — even if your first bouquet won’t be ready until June — joining now means you secure the best rate available.
You don’t need to have inventory listed.
You don’t need photos uploaded.
You don’t need to be “ready.”
You just need the intention.
2. You Have Time to Build a Beautiful Profile (Without Pressure)
Spring gets busy fast.
When flowers are blooming, you want to be harvesting, arranging, and enjoying the work — not learning a new platform for the first time.
Joining early gives you time to:
- Write your grower story
- Upload photos
- Set your pickup locations (including multiple locations — a new feature!)
- Customize availability for each pickup location
- Practice listing products
- Get comfortable with your dashboard
When your flowers are ready, you’ll already be set up.
3. You Can Learn Before the Hustle Begins
Selling flowers for the first time can feel intimidating.
What should I charge?
How many bouquets should I offer?
What if no one buys?
Joining now lets you explore, ask questions, and build confidence gradually.
There’s something powerful about stepping into the role of “grower” before the first stem is cut.
4. You Don’t Need a Farm to Make an Impact
Local Blooms was built for backyard growers and small-scale flower farmers.
You don’t need acres.
You don’t need wholesale accounts.
You don’t need complex inventory systems.
I started in less than 200 square feet in my own backyard in Colorado Springs. Some weeks I sold 5 bouquets, some weeks none. That was enough to cover seed costs, bless friends, and feel the joy of sharing what I grew.
Even selling three bouquets a week makes a difference.
Small gardens. Big impact.
5. You’re Part of Something Bigger
This isn’t just about selling flowers.
It’s about changing how people buy flowers in our country.
Right now, when someone wants to “send flowers,” they default to a wire-service florist. Most flowers are imported. Most people have no idea where they were grown.
I believe we can change that.
I believe when someone logs onto Local Blooms and types in an address, they should see pages of beautiful, fresh, locally grown arrangements from growers in their own community.
That only happens if growers say yes.
Even if it’s small.
Even if it’s part-time.
Even if it’s just a handful of bouquets.
Join Now — Even If Your First Bouquet Is Months Away
If you’re planning to grow flowers this year, don’t wait until you feel “ready.”
Join now.
Set up slowly.
Learn the platform.
Dream a little.
Lock in the FIRST500 rate before February 28.
You can start with zero inventory and still take the first step.
Because sometimes the most important seed we plant isn’t in the soil.
It’s the decision to begin.
