It's easy to fundraise with flowers at different times of the year. Fundraising flowers are popular items for Valentines Day, Mothers Day, Christmas holidays, springtime planting, and fall color.

Here are some ideas for fundraising with flowers:

Valentines Day
Almost everyone buys flowers for their loved ones on Valentine's Day and there's several ways to use it as a fundraiser. First, you can contract with wholesale florists or even grocery stores to buy roses and other flowers at a discount.

Next, pre-sell your flower bouquets and roses ahead of time through flyers, word-of-mouth, and direct sales. In addition to the traditional red roses, offer single roses or dozens in different colors such as white or pink.

You can also sell them in crystal vases or offer flower arrangements for non-romantic gift giving. After all, children also like to give their mothers flowers on Valentines Day too. You can even offer chocolate roses for all those chocoholics out there.

Use flowers for a Valentines Day fundraiser at school. This is a popular way for the student council to raise funds by selling single flowers before school and during breaks for students to send to teachers, friends, or that certain crush.

Mothers Day
Mothers Day is another great holiday for fundraising flowers. Again, take orders in advance for bouquets and flower arrangements and arrange to buy ahead of time at a discount.

With talented help, you can also create unique arrangements from scratch and sell those as well. Boost sales by offering shipping services to out-of-town recipients and include a small markup to cover handling costs.

Christmas flowers
At Christmastime, poinsettias are another great flower fundraiser. Take orders in mid-November and deliver a few weeks before the holiday season.

You can source these in bulk at substantial discounts from nurseries and garden shops. Concentrate on traditional colors, but also offer the newer multi-hued creations as well.

You can combine this holiday flower fundraiser with offering pre-made Christmas wreaths and raise extra funds that way..

Summary
Fundraising with flowers is easy and quite profitable when you tap into an existing market demand. Holidays such as Valentines Day and Mothers Day are perfect opportunities for raising funds, but don't overlook the Christmas holiday season as well.
