July is American Grown Flowers and Foliage month, a designation that has received support in the Senate and House of Representatives with the introduction of resolutions recognizing the contributions of American farms.

Camron King, CEO and ambassador for Certified American Grown, an independent national trade association, talked with SAF NOW about new legislation introduced last week to recognize American flower and foliage farms, and how the domestic floral industry has changed in the past several years.

Amanda Jedlinsky is the managing editor of SAF NOW.
