CHAMBER ANNOUNCES GROWTH OF FLOWER BASKET PROGRAM

The Florence Area Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the City of Florence's public works department, is thrilled to expand our iconic Flower Basket Program this year!

We're set to hang over 140 stunning flowering baskets along Highway 101, from the bridge to the intersection with Highway 126, and throughout Historic Old Town. These baskets have been a beloved symbol of optimism, beauty, and community pride for the last eight years, welcoming locals and visitors alike to our charming city.

Become a Sponsor: Individuals, businesses, and civic clubs are invited to sponsor a flower basket for $100. Your sponsorship supports the purchase, maintenance, and hanging of these vibrant displays from early May through October. Last year, we had over 100 generous donors, including supporters from Eugene, Corvallis, Albany, and beyond.

Why Sponsor? Sponsoring a flower basket is not just about beautifying our community—it's about spreading joy, creating memories, and showcasing Florence's charm to the world. Your sponsorship will be remembered, celebrated, and shared by locals and visitors alike. Plus, it's a fantastic way to show your support for local businesses and our tourism-based economy.

How to Sponsor: Ready to make a positive impact? Sponsor a flower basket today online here or calling the chamber office at 541-997-3128.

Join Us in Building a Beautiful Community: Together, let's enhance our local beauty, support small businesses, and create lasting impressions on all who visit Florence. Your contribution to the Flower Basket Program helps us showcase Florence as the best place to live, work, and play.
