Olla’s long term goal to urbanize flower production

For a social enterprise start-up like Olla Urban Flower Project, community is everything. Our innovative plant and flower shop located in Gastown continues to grow organically by word of mouth and takes strength and inspiration from our community partnerships.

Our fabulous initiatives taking root in 2011:

New partnership with SOLEfood Inner City Farms that will help us move towards our goal of urbanizing cut flower production.

New workshop series examining urban gardening techniques and flower arranging traditions from around the globe.

Ideas for beautiful, more sustainable memorials, weddings, and special events.

Flowers can be philanthropic- learn about our program that forwards event and corporate flowers onto non-profit organizations operating in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside.

Expansion of our Backyard Flower Farm project. Contact us to find out how you can host a flower farm or market the bounty of your flowering shrubs
