<p>“We are truly excited to welcome guests to Fern Trust and to highlight the beauty that is grown on our farms here in Florida,” said David Register, Executive Vice President of Fern Trust. “Our family heritage of farming ferns and foliage here in the U.S. runs deep and it is a passion to continue to share when we do. When people have the opportunity to learn where their foliage is grown and produced to beautify their arrangements at home and in their offices, we have the chance to increase our supporters and ambassadors. Our farms are unique and exciting – the Field to Vase dinner is an immersive and engaging way to enjoy our farm, support American grown, build community, and  increase the movement to purchase more domestic foliage and flowers.”</p><p></p><p>Fern Trust is an agriculture cooperative made up of over a dozen family farms that work together to produce America’s best floral greens. With over 300 acres of ferns and foliage, FernTrust's David Register likes to say, “If it is a green, they grow it.” Florida’s blend of warm/cold temperatures nurture dark color, lush plants and textural interest, and is the perfect climate for cultivating gorgeous greens. The ambiance created by these exotic greens is truly special.</p><h1>Seating is limited.
