One of the great untapped resources to help your school or community project raise money is flower fundraising. With the attention the green movement is generating, people are already thinking of the environment. With a solid green fundraising item you can interest these donors, generate great sales and beautify the community.

Flower Fundraising Appeals To Everybody

Beautiful flower have such a wide appeal that they represent many different clubs. Scouts, Girl Guides, Cheerleaders and Girl Softball teams have all used flowers to raise their funds. Flowers show your club not only caring for others but in an environmentally conscious way too.

Flower Education As An Added Bonus

There’s an educational opportunity for elementary students and schools that choose flower fundraising. By planting and watching their own flowers grow students get to experience the growing phase first hand. Teachers can show how things are grown and tie it into how some of the fruit and vegetables students eat are grown in the ground. Lesson plans can also mention root systems, the different varieties of seeds, plant structures and even photosynthesis.

Exercise and Environmental Benefits and More

The benefits flower fundraising generates extend to beautifying the environment and for the gardener. Gardening is great exercise that has been documented to lower blood pressure as well as keep the body in motion. The act of just gazing at flowers can be used as a stress fighting agent. Flowers have also been used to fight soil erosion and to help improve air quality.

Spring and Fall Seeds

It’s not just technology that keeps improving, these days improvements have also come to seed development. Donors are assured that every seed the buy will bloom into beautiful flowers. This will take the pressure off those who don’t have a green thumb.

Flower fundraising will give you the choice of growing flowers outdoors with Starflowers, Glory of the Snow, Tulips and Daffodils, Hyacinths and more. Each type of seed comes with instructions for proper placement during planting for maximum growth. Indoor seeds are available for Paperwhite and Amaryllis. These indoor seeds will bloom within 6-8 weeks for the period of October to March.

A Solid Second Fundraising Campaign

Many organizations have multiple fundraisers going at once. As a marketing tactic these campaigns broaden the amount of appeal and the number of chances a community service club, church or nonprofit can collect money. Adding a flower fundraiser as your second fundraiser is very simple. The seeds can be ordered and shipped quickly during the growing season. They take up little room and store for a long time.

During the early spring and fall months while the seeds still have time to bloom, your school can book a table at a local flea market or shopping mall. Have some blooming flowers on the table to create a little attention and get donors thinking about flowers. With a few volunteers you will see that flower fundraising is a simple way to generate interest in your cause.
