Slow Flowers Summit

Slow Flowers Society brings its sixth annual conference to the Bellevue Botanical Garden for two days of design inspiration, creative floral installations, and conversations about sustainable flowers

The Slow Flowers Summit is a multi-day conference for creative professionals, thought leaders, and pioneering voices in the progressive Slow Flowers community. Designed to stimulate curiosity, examine conventional assumptions, and explore conscious and ethical practices in the floral industry, the Summit asks speakers and audience members alike to inquire, inform, include, instigate and inspire.

The Slow Flowers Summit will take place June 26 and 27, 2023 at the Bellevue Botanical Garden. Guests will gather for educational programs held inside BBG’s LEED-Certified Aaron Education Center and have access to the entire 53-acre public garden for inspiration, education, and design activities. The Slow Flowers Summit’s speaker lineup includes prominent floral designers, flower farmers, and other creatives.

Registration to the 2-day event is $849, including breakfast, lunch, refreshments and end-of-day receptions. Slow Flowers members may register for $749. Dinner on the Flower Farm (Sunday, June 25, 2023) is a separately ticketed event. LEARN MORE & REGISTER
