Flowering in the North Conference 2025
Save the Date!
January 21-23, 2025
Portland, Maine
Join us as we bring together flower growers across the North for an exciting 3-day conference for learning and sharing fresh ideas, strategies, tips, and resources for growing in colder climates. The Flowering In The North (FITN) conference will be geared for all flower growers, so whether you’re an experienced farmer or just starting out; whether you’re a sole operator of a small farm or if you’re part of a large-scale operation, you will take away valuable information to help you grow. This is a great opportunity to network as well as explore the vibrant city of Portland, Maine. Let’s build and strengthen our grower community because together, we can continue to raise the profile of locally-grown flowers.
