US: Florida grower celebrating Mother's Day over 125 years

With Mother’s Day approaching Manatee Farms is celebrating over 125 years of growing quality plants and flowers for Moms nationwide. Manatee is celebrating with the launch of a new website www.manateefarms.com, development of SMARTfloral technologies for retail and a focus on product selections offering only “Locally Grown” plants and certified sustainable imported flowers. In the age of tech savvy consumers and eco-conscience awareness ManateeFarms is changing the way it reaches its customers to help raise awareness of why eco-friendly floral products are important.

Manatee CEO Whiting Preston says: Consumers today want to know where the products they buy are produced. They want to know workers are properly cared for and given the proper safety training and equipment to do their jobs. Certified floral farms preserve the local ecology surrounding the farm and work to minimize their footprint on Mother Earth.

This Mothers Day - Tell mom you care enough to send plants and flowers grown by local farms or global growers that are certified sustainable.
