Michigan Flower Barn is a wholesale flower market collective, connecting designers and floral shops to high quality cut-flowers and foliage all grown by farmers in Michigan.
A new* Standard for wholesale flowers
*Local. Sustainable. Better.
All of our flowers and foliage are locally grown in Michigan, harvested fresh each week by a diverse team of flower farmers who are committed to growing sustainable, high-quality blooms.
We work directly with our flower farming members from across the state to supply anyone in the florist industry (or looking for event flowers) with design worthy stems. Our team has thoughtfully developed an efficient online ordering process while providing reliable customer service to make purchasing local wholesale cut-flowers easier than ever. No importing, no damaged goods from shipping, every stem is harvested weekly per-order.
MFB is owned and and operated by female farmers and floral designers who want to provide the floral industry with access to slow-grown flowers. We are conveniently located in Bennington Township, Michigan, between Perry and Owosso – just a short drive from downtown Lansing and Flint. Our Detroit location is available for wholesale pickups for metro-Detroit buyers every Wednesday. We also offer a convenient delivery option for qualifying purchases!

What Are Slow-Grown Flowers?
Flowers grown with sustainable farming practices, harvested in their natural season of bloom, sourced as close to you as possible – and designed by florists who are using chemical-free techniques. As farmer-florists, we make sure all of the flowers and foliage are harvested and sold immediately for use. Michigan ‘slow-flowers’ are grown in your state, eliminating the massive carbon footprint that comes with importing flowers.
