Fundraising with flower bulbs

Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009 | General | No Comments

peony Vessey’s in PEI has a fundraising program available this Spring- sell Vessey’s spring bulbs and earn 50% of the funds for your fundraiser. Soooo… sell $100 worth of bulbs and get $50. Plus for every $150 you bring in, Vessey’s dontates 10 Asiatic Lilies on the house.

While bulbs aren’t a particularly sustainable crop, they are lovely and very popular and I’m certainly not one to judge any kind of growing operation. Ahem.

Thought this could be a great opportunity for a community garden (or other green group) to raise money by spreading the Spring love.

This also gave me a great idea for a kids gardening fundraiser- help kids start their own seedlings and sell them to raise money for a gardening project. Awwww. Warm fuzzies.

Vessey’s is a Canadian company.For more deets, check out Vesseys.com.
