They welcomed guests from places like Windsor, Sarnia, Toronto, Guelph and Cambridge who all came out for a greenhouse tour, local wines and beers (from CosMic's neighbours; Malivoire Winery and Bench beer brewery). The appetizers and 4 course dinner was prepared by local Culinary Market The Grand Oak (from Vineland) and served on a 40 meter long harvest table, surrounded by Floral Décor designed and installed by Opening Night Flowers (from Oakville).
This was the second Petals and Plates event organized by Flowers Canada – Ontario. The first one was at Rosa Flora about a month ago. The idea behind this event is to create awareness among the general public as to how exciting and professional the floral industry in Southern Ontario is, how floral products are being produced so locally and to promote flowers and plants by creating an experience that will surprise and inspire guests. The guest bought tickets that were advertised on social media by the marketing board of Flowers Canada – Ontario.
At the event, many photos were taken and are being shared over social media (Instagram: #petals_and_plates, Facebook: @petalsandplates / @cosmicplants)
“It was a great success and we were all super excited and honored here at CosMic Plants to be asked to host this amazing event at our Orchid greenhouse! We would like to thank everyone who took part in the organization, as it was a true team effort! It is great to hear people’s reactions and to be able to answer their questions. We work in an industry we can all be proud of!", says Mike VanSteekelenburg, co-owner of CosMic Plants.
