310 Selling Flowers to Florists with Abundant Blooms Flower Farm
April 30, 2025
When Ruth Ann Majauskas first launched her flower farm in 2020, she tried a little bit of everything—farmers markets, retail, subscriptions. But the magic happened when she shifted her focus entirely to wholesale… selling flowers directly to florists.
What started as trial and error quickly evolved into a streamlined system with loyal buyers, consistent orders, and a workflow she could count on. Now, Ruth Ann runs a thriving wholesale flower farm business—and she’s helping other flower farmers learn how to do the same.
In today’s episode, she shares how she built her florist-focused business model, what makes the wholesale florist buyer tick, how she finds and communicates with them, what software she uses to manage weekly orders, and more. She even reveals how she uses the same marketing framework I teach inside Farm Marketing School—tailored specifically to florists.
🎧 Tune in to hear how Ruth Ann built her flower business from the ground up—and how you can too.
Meet Today’s Podcast Guest: Ruth Ann Majauskas
Ruth Ann Majauskas is the owner of Abundant Blooms Flower Farm in Dorr, Michigan. She started her farm in 2020 with her then three small children in tow. After dabbling in a few different sales models, she discovered her niche—selling flowers to florists—and now sells exclusively to them.
In December 2024, Ruth Ann launched a YouTube channel and online course, Selling Flowers to Florists, to teach other flower farmers how to do what she does. She’s a wife and homeschooling mama to five children. When she’s not farming, she enjoys trips to Lake Michigan with her family and reading a few paragraphs from her book each night before bed.
