2027 is the 10th Anniversary Year for the Slow Flowers Summit!
The Slow Flowers Summit is a conference for creative professionals, thought leaders and pioneering voices in the progressive Slow Flowers community. Designed to stimulate curiosity, examine conventional assumptions and explore conscious and ethical practices in the floral industry, the Summit agenda asks speakers and audience members alike to inquire, inform, include, instigate and inspire.
Save the Date for our 2027 Summit as we return to live and in-person programming to celebrate our 10th Anniversary.
This event will take place over three days -- June 20-22, 2027 -- and will be an unforgettable floral "mind meld" for floral professionals and flower lovers to fill their toolboxes with skills and techniques, while uplifting their goals and ambitions, and connecting with friends, colleagues, and thought-leaders in the Slow Flowers Movement.
Save the Date and join Slow Flowers' doers and thinkers for three inspiring days of progressive ideas, connections and inspiration. All details will be announced by September 1st.
