We have released our 2024-2025 Annual Report<\/a>,<\/strong> capturing a year of momentum, innovation, and industry-driven impact. The report illustrates how collective investment from across the floral community is fueling research, education, and leadership development that will shape the future of floriculture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spanning July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025, the report details more than $600,000 awarded to 20 research projects, expanded sustainability education through Sustainabloom, and continued support for students and emerging leaders through scholarships, internships, and the Young Professionals Council. In total, AFE distributed more than $1.5 million in research, scholarship, and grant funding: strategically strengthening every segment of the floral industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report also highlights the establishment of new and repurposed funds, including the Demaree Family Floriculture Advancement Fund, growth to 70 named funds, and the ongoing impact of industry-backed initiatives that address real-world challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his letter to the industry opening the report, AFE Chairman David Garcia reflects on a year marked by economic uncertainty and reduced external funding, while emphasizing the resilience of the floral community and the Endowment\u2019s role as a steady, trusted partner. He highlights AFE\u2019s continued evolution, recent program expansions, and the importance of collective industry support as the organization looks ahead to its 65th anniversary in 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The full 2024-2025 Annual Report is now available on ou<\/a><\/strong>r website here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
