Question

Accepted Answer

Yes, we supply year-round from stock built during the harvest, but availability and price are best during and immediately after the spring flowering season.

For programs with continuous demand we recommend buying 60–70% of your annual volume in-season.Share your rolling 12-month forecast and we will reserve in-season production to keep your price and supply stable.
