They price gauge during holidays which is incredibly sad to do as a “wholesale” market

My daughter ordered over $200 worth of whilt flowers for her Saturade 9/17/22 wedding. When we picked the flowers up I did not have her order list but I asked the person at the Music Shop where we were to pick up the flowers if they could check the order because there were so few flowers. She assured me that was the entire order. I noticed right away that two of the bundles of flowers were dirty and had broken stems. When I got back home And checked the order that had been paid in full I realized that: 1. only 5 calla Lillie's instead of 10 2. no freesias ( 2 bundles ordered) 3. no statis 4. Over half of the snap dreaming were broken and dirty They did reimburse me for $100 but it made the day before going to the wedding venue a nightmare as I drove from flower shop to flower shop to try to find more white flowers at any price. Also my daughter's all a Lilly bouquet looked quite sad missing half the flowers. The entire experience was extremely frustrating and diasspointing.

I can only speak as a public customer (not a florist). If you're the same, just skip it. You won't get any deals here, in fact you'd probably be better off just going straight to one of the neighborhood or Pike Place Farmers Markets.The good: The selection is beautiful, more unique and there are more variations than what you'd find at a grocery store or probably local Farmers Markets. You could come here and just get a unique bundle or two to help spruce up an otherwise standard bouquet elsewhere.The cons: It's very expensive for what you get. I probably have enough florals to make 2-3 bouquets that are around the size of the $25-$30 bouquets at a Farmers Market. Unfortunately, it cost me $200.Prices are not clearly marked for most florals (they're posted to 1 bulletin board and you would have to know the exact flower type in order to get an idea of pricing). So you do not find out your total until you check-out. Then, you're left in the awkward position of having to downsize at the register when all of the sudden a few bundles comes to $300+ like mine did.The staff also didn't seem to know their own promotions, and/or the item codes don't have these promotions tied to them. I had to remind the cashier that 2 of my bundles were supposed to be "1/2 off". She then asked me if there were any other discounted bundles in my order.Lastly, the receipts are not itemized. I still have no clue what the different florals came to. I know I got rid of the most expensive two (1 garden rose bunch for $64, and a different bunch for $30+) but I assume the rest were about $10-$20 each based on the range on the pricing sheets.It's definitely a space meant for professionals who know exactly what they're looking for and are getting the wholesale prices. Which is okay! But be warned it's a VERY hands-off experience if you're just a regular Joe. There were 3 other people there for the first time also and all of them/us had to seek out an associate to understand the process, pricing, etc. It's not intuitive by any means. Or cost effective. Or convenient due to the limited public hours and appointment only.But if you're a florist, I'm sure it's great! I don't know that I'll ever go back due to the sticker shock, however. 2.5 bouquets for the price of 6.

I just don't know that there should even be public days if the org isn't going to actually accommodate public shoppers (clear pricing, clear process, being upfront about it not being wholesale for us, etc.).

I reserved 3 of the buckets and picked them up on a Friday during the public hours and then purchased a few additional bundles in order to make bouquets and wedding arch flowers that we did ourselves. They were easy to work with and provided information to make our mission a success. Love how all the flowers turned out. There were so many options for colors and styles of flowers!

As a PNW florist, I love the growers market!! The product is consistent + amazing. The staff is so friendly + professional. We love to support local farmers + are so grateful to this market for the opportunity to do so!

Beautiful flowers, but they will cost you an arm and a leg.

Amazing flowers and foliages grown by local member farmers that are owners of this Co-op. You can find a lot of things here that you won't find at other floral wholesalers. If you come in on a Monday or Wednesday you might even meet the farmer who grew them! The market is open to the public to shop Fridays from 10am until noon.

Unless you have a business as a florist, be prepared for 100% mark-up. I had three bunches of common flowers, which ended up being about $80.00. So no deal here for retail customers.

Came in for the public hours on Friday to peruse. Ive been following them on instagram for a while now and finally got the chance to check them out in person. As with other reviews the rating is based on the pricing at this place. Everything on the public days is twice the listed price. The listed prices to me seemed more like retail pricing. $40.00 for a 6in non-fancy anthurium is out of control. I wouldn't even pay $20.00 for a "wholesale" cost. Since it was the end of the week the selection of flowers was "picked over" as they described. The quality of what was left matched what you would expect after a week of people coming through and pulling out the best. I could see myself returning to purchase some wood and specialty items in the future but that's it. Im sad because I wish I could do more to support a local company.
