Why Tariffs Are Shaking Up the Floral Industry
Why Tariffs Are Shaking Up the Floral Industry—And Why We’re Staying Steady
The floral industry is feeling the ripple effects of recent tariff increases on imported goods—including cut flowers and greenery. For wholesalers and florists, that can mean rising costs, tighter margins, and a lot more unpredictability when it comes to planning and pricing.
At Santana Farms, we understand how frustrating that can be.
That’s why we want to share some good news: we’re not affected by those tariffs—because we grow everything right here in San Diego County.

Grown, Not Flown
While many in the industry rely on imported product, everything we grow is local, seasonal, and handled with care from soil to shipment. That means no surprise border delays, no import fees, and no last-minute price hikes due to international trade policies.
When you shop with us, you’re not just getting premium quality—you’re getting stability.
Supporting Local Means More Than Ever
Sourcing from a local farm like Santana means you’re not only avoiding tariff-related price spikes, but you’re also:

We’ve spent over 40 years cultivating not just beautiful product, but real relationships with our clients—rooted in trust, consistency, and a deep knowledge of what florists and designers need to succeed.
