Groups on Facebook for Like-Minded People

Facebook groups often offer a meaningful way to interact with like-minded. Also in Floriculture. If you're one of the two billion people on Facebook, it's likely you're part of at least a few groups relevant to your interests. Facebook groups are a great way to have people and businesses interact in a fun, and more connected way. They offer exclusivity and a sense of community that's different than other social media channels.

Thursd's top 10 Facebook Groups for Florists

For people working with flowers and plants, or just loving them, there is an enormous number of Facebook groups to be found. Some groups are specifically and exclusively for florists and have questions in order to become a member, whereas as a non-florist you are not allowed to join. Some are more open to everyone. Here are 10 Facebook groups for florists that you definitely do not want to miss while being a florist or working in floriculture, starting with number ten:

Number 10. Eco-Friendly Florists & Flower Growers Collective

This is quite a new group which in the beginning aimed at the British florists who support locally grown flowers. But it is becoming more and more an international group for the 'green florist'. The description says: 'A friendly & supportive place for florists & flower growers who have an interest in using British (or homegrown) flowers, ‘green’ floristry techniques and are interested in generally reducing our collective carbon footprint.' https://www.facebook.com/groups/141007963356735/ Facebook Group Eco Friendly Florists & Flower Growers Collective

Number 9. 🌿 World of Philodendron's, Anthurium's and other Aroids🌿

This is not the biggest group, but if you love Philodendrons, Anthuriums and other big leafy plants, then this is your group! Green plants are in fashion nowadays, and this group supports everyone with interest in these big leafy plants! https://www.facebook.com/groups/1739143796170500/

Number 8. International Floristry Network

This group focuses on only florists and has by far the largest member numbers of all florist groups. It is mainly used by florists who showcase their own personal work. As in so many other groups, the members who post pictures are often the same people. Good to know is that the owner of this group capitalizes the page by offering benchmarks and other promotions to growers and traders. But nonetheless, this group is still quite an interesting group to stay informed and to see the designs of other florists. https://www.facebook.com/groups/internationalfloristrynetwork/

Number 7. Houseplant Hoarders

By far the largest group in this top ten. Not really floriculture related or specifically a Facebook group for florists, but still this group claims its place in this top ten because it is very informative about all different kinds of plants. And very often, you'll find hilarious and funny posts. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1369424076459678/

Number 6. Dutch Floral Design

A page initiated by the renowned Boerma Institute in The Netherlands. It is a group for all (former) students, teachers, designers and everybody who likes flowers & floral design and especially Dutch Floral Design. Over 12.500 members already. Also, many top designers from all over the world are members and post regularly on this page. https://www.facebook.com/groups/339645692522/

Number 5. Thursd - Your Floral Meetup Spot
