Seeds of Innovation: Thank You for Growing Our Mission
As our 2025 ASCFG Research Foundation campaign comes to a close, we are filled with gratitude for every member and supporter who participated in this meaningful initiative.
This year, something beautiful happened in our community. The Seeds of Innovation campaign accomplished its most important goal: raising awareness about the vital role research plays in advancing our industry.
Through your engagement, sharing, and conversations, you helped spread the word about how the ASCFG Research Foundation has been supporting groundbreaking studies since the early 2000’s.
Your Impact Goes Beyond Dollars
Every social media post, every conversation with a fellow grower, and every moment you took to learn about our research initiatives planted seeds that will continue to grow. You helped us reach growers who had never heard about our foundation's work. You sparked discussions about the importance of supporting research. You reminded our community that innovation happens when we work together.
What You Helped Us Accomplish
- Increased awareness of our 501(c)(3) Research Foundation and its mission
- Connected with members who are now engaged research advocates
- Strengthened our community's understanding of how research benefits every grower
- Built momentum for future research initiatives and funding opportunities
- Demonstrated the power of collective voice in supporting innovation
The Research Continues
Thanks to your support and advocacy, we move forward with renewed energy. The studies we fund today – on climate resilience, pest management, soil health, and post-harvest innovations – will benefit growers for years to come. Your participation in this campaign ensures that the ASCFG Research Foundation’s mission remains visible and valued in our community.
To every member who contributed, liked or shared a post, or simply took time to read about our research work – thank you. You are the reason our foundation can continue supporting the studies that help our industry thrive. Your engagement proves that when the cut flower community comes together around a shared mission, powerful things happen. The seeds of innovation you helped plant will bloom in research labs, university greenhouses, and on farms across the nation. Thank you for believing in the power of research to grow our industry’s future.
With deep appreciation,
