Coronavirus hit California's cut-flower industry at the worst time - Los Angeles Times

Lompoc-based Ocean View Flowers, which produced 40 million stems only two years ago. Its produce-growing parent company, Santa Barbara Farms, closed the flower operation permanently, according to company and industry sources. Eufloria, whose boutique roses have adorned New Year’s Day floats in Pasadena and thoroughbred horses at Churchill Downs, announced it would shut down its Nipomo farm on March 18. It laid off most of its workers and donated unsold stems to hospitals and nursing homes.But such was the outcry from fans and clients, Eufloria reopened two days later. Advertisement “We are starting to bring some of that employment back,” sales manager Chad Nelson said. “We want to make sure that we’re doing things to keep [plants] producing the way that they should, and if and when this market does come back, then figure out how we can handle those orders.” Coastal farms from San Diego County through Humboldt County likewise laid off most of their workers and went into dormancy at the very time when they usually earn the bulk of revenue — the string of holidays from Valentine’s Day through Mother’s Day. Chain groceries were among the first to cancel orders, said F.J. Trzuskowski, vice president of sales for Washington-based Continental Floral Greens, which grows the “supporting cast” green foliage for bouquets on three California farms. Advertisement “There was no forewarning of this. It was like, ‘Hey, stop all shipments starting now,’” Trzuskowski said. “Then with social distancing, all of a sudden the wholesaler can’t be open to the public. It was a very quick stop to the industry.”Mellano said he also was hit hard by cancellations of events such as conferences, particularly in Las Vegas. Weddings were put off, along with their roses, said Eufloria’s Nelson.“Maybe they didn’t happen right now, but they’re going to happen, right?” he said. “We just don’t know what size they’re going to be when they do happen. Budgets are going to be different.” Advertisement The California Cut Flower Commission has told its members that floriculture is protected under the agricultural exemption to closure orders. But with the collapse of the distribution pipeline, the clarification amounts to a technicality. Los Angeles’ historic flower market, like others around the nation, is a ghost town. “We’ve got wholesale companies closing down and retail stores, which in some cases have business, are losing their normal lines of distribution,” CEO Pruitt said. “We’re in the process of trying to put that back together.”Pruitt said it’s hard to predict how many farms will fail and which ones will have enough funds left to reboot once demand increases. Growers could switch crops or hedge their bets, as some of the financially strapped greenhouse operations did by lea...

Six local schools have chapters of Youth for Direct Relief. (Courtesy photo) For the past 13 years, students throughout Santa Barbara have organized an annual flower drive in support of Direct Relief, a local humanitarian aid organization that improves the health and lives of people around the world. Flowers for Relief is run by Youth for Direct Relief (Y4DR), a group of 75 students who lead club chapters at six local schools: Santa Barbara, San Marcos, Dos Pueblos and Bishop Diego high schools; Laguna Blanca School and Dunn School. For a $75 donation, supporters can have bouquets delivered by Y4DR members to people or places between Goleta and Carpinteria on April 7 and 21. The fundraiser has brought in more than $325,000 since 2007. The generosity of the donors provides real and useful international aid to struggling regions while bringing smiles to those who were selected to receive the flowers locally. Youth for Direct Relief kids will meet at 4 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 9, in Direct Relief’s headquarters, 6100 Wallace Becknell Road, for the Flowers for Relief kickoff event. Members will receive an update on Direct Relief’s work since the last flower drive and assemble the Flowers for Relief mailing.
