My precious dad stood out from his competition by being an amazing problem solver when it came to his customer’s floral needs. So proud of all his contributions to the agricultural and floral industry in his 55 years of service.
Hispanic Heritage Month Celebration from September 15 - October 15, 2021.
The month long celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month continues through October 15, 2021. There are so many inspiring Hispanics in science, business, education, music, law, food, literature, art and other professions that have contributed to make the U.S. more prosperous.
Among the inspiring Hispanics, are all the agriculture workers who work hard for their families for a better future and for consumers to have fresh fruits, vegetables and flowers for their homes, events, or businesses.
One such example is my late father, who dedicated 55 years to the agriculture industry. His long experience in the agriculture industry began as an employee in the flower industry, which many years later inspired him to start his farming business of growing vegetables and flowers. My dad persevered through all the challenges of farming. He never gave up on being his own boss.
He spent his last 34 years in the industry running his own successful wholesale flower business in San Francisco. Many of his floral branches, gorgeous imported flowers, custom wreaths and garlands adorned homes, hotels, and restaurants in the Bay Area, even celebrity events. He was rare gem in the flower industry since he showed an exceptional love for his products, his service, and his customers. My dad will always be my champion! 😀♥
