Talking Local Roses with Ellen Frost of Local Color Flowers

Hi! I’m Scott Shepherd and I want to welcome you to this special episode of The Flower Podcast, where I have conversations with floral professionals from farmers to florists of all kinds.

We’ve been on our summer break and I’m really excited for the beginning of our new season next week and wanted to share my conversation on Instagram with Ellen Frost of Local Color Flowers.

During the recent strikes in Ecuador, with all of its supply distributions issues, Ellen and I connected and thought it would be a good time to chat about sourcing, growing, and selling local garden roses.

If you’re new to our podcast Ellen shares her story and love of local flowers on Episode 106 which released in the fall of 2020. She always has great insights since she operates her floral business using local blooms exclusively. I was happy when Ellen reached out to me and wanted to go LIVE on Instagram sharing her experiences working with local roses and rose growers.

Next week launches our new season and I want to invite you to subscribe to our podcast on your podcast app of choice. It’s hard to believe that we just had our 4 year anniversary and so excited to have you as part of our life. You can learn more about all of past guests, including the original episode with Ellen, and all of our blog posts at theflowerpodcast.com
