Continental Floral Greens (CFG) and Kendall Farms are proud to announce a new strategic partnership that unites two industry leaders in U.S.–grown floral and foliage production.

Eucalyptus Production

The collaboration centers on a dedicated Eucalyptus farm in Southern California that began production five years ago, located adjacent to Kendall Farms’ existing operations. The farm will focus on key varieties—including Eucalyptus Baby Blue, True Blue, Silver Dollar, Gunni, and Parvifolia—which will be available through both companies’ established distribution channels.

To further streamline service, a new distribution point at Kendall Farms will support nationwide shipping for all CFG customers. In addition, Continental Floral Greens will now offer select Kendall Farms floral products—Waxflower, Grevillea, Leucadendron Safari Sunset, Safari Scarlet, and Rosemary—in bulk, consumer bunches, and seasonal bouquets.

Comments from Both CEOs

Jim Milgard, CEO of Continental Floral Greens, says:

“I’m excited to launch this joint‑venture partnership with our longtime friends at Kendall Farms. Jason and I have talked for years about finding the right way to work together, and this opportunity lets us blend our strengths. Teaming up means broader offerings and  better support for our U.S. customers—exactly what both of us are here to do.”

Teaming up on this project—and the many we hope will follow— brings together the best of what we each offer, while working with people we genuinely enjoy. I’m honored and excited to get started.”
