Presented by The Flowering Farmhouse and the Dahlia Growers Collective
September 13-18, 2026 | 100% Virtual
Turn the dahlias in your field into arrangements, photos, and a brand that look as good as the blooms.
Five days with farmer florists, designers, and photographers.
September 13-18, 100% virtual.
Over 400 flower friends attended the Profitable Dahlia Summit
This past March we hosted The Profitable Dahlia Summit. Over 400 growers showed up. When we asked what they wanted next, the answer kept coming back: teach us the beautiful part. The color, the arranging, the photos. So we built this one.
"I didn't know how much I was capable of. This has remedied my imposter syndrome."
— Nadia S., Profitable Dahlia Summit Attendee
"I was overwhelmed, but this summit has given me so much clarity."
— Mandie F., Profitable Dahlia Summit Attendee
"I learned SO much! Thank you!"
— Peggy D., Profitable Dahlia Summit Attendee
"Incredible production, Jennifer. You did an amazing job, you and your team!"
— Debi, Profitable Dahlia Summit Attendee
WHO THIS SUMMIT IS FOR
This summit was built for you if...
✔ You grow dahlias in your backyard. Maybe twelve plants, maybe a hundred. You love the blooms and you want your arrangements, your photos, and your garden to feel as beautiful as the flowers themselves.
✔ You are turning a hobby into something more. You sell at farmers markets, take on small wedding work, ship tubers, or are starting to. You want your work to look and feel as intentional as the dahlias you are growing.
✔ You are a working florist, designer, or photographer who loves dahlias. You want to learn how other pros are approaching dahlias right now, and you want a few hours with the people who are doing it most beautifully.
Whichever of these is you, you will leave with new skills and design techniques you did not have before.
If your arrangements never feel quite finished, and your photos never quite capture what you saw in the field, that's not a talent problem. It's the part nobody teaches growers.
By Friday, September 18th, you'll know how to:
-
Build a market bouquet that sells on sight, in the time you actually have
-
Photograph your blooms with the phone already in your pocket
-
Arrange dahlias and know exactly what to pair them with
-
Press dahlias into art that sells long after the season ends
-
Style a centerpiece that tells a story instead of just filling a vase
-
Build a look people recognize as yours before they read your name
You already did the hard part. You grew them. This is the part that comes next.
Summit Format
The Dahlia Design Summit runs over five days, with sessions you watch on your own time and live moments that bring everyone together.
Sunday, September 13: Live Kickoff Call at 12pm Pacific
We open the summit together. Walk through what is coming, talk about how to get the most out of the week ahead, and meet your fellow attendees.
Monday through Friday: Daily Speaker Drops + Live Q&A Panels at 3pm Pacific
Two to three speaker sessions drop each morning, Monday through Friday. Each day's sessions stay open for 24 hours before the next day's drops unlock. In the evening, that day's speakers come back live for a Q&A panel so you can ask your questions in real time.

Meet Your Summit Host
Hi, I’m jennifer Gulizia
Founder of The Flowering Farmhouse and Host of The Backyard Bouquet Podcast
Before I became a flower farmer, I worked as a professional photographer, which is part of why this summit matters so much to me. The way we photograph our dahlias and the visual story we build around them matters every bit as much as how we grow them.
Last winter I hosted The Profitable Dahlia Summit. Over 400 people came, and the number one thing they asked for next was a summit focused on design. So that is what we are doing this September.
I will be teaching one of the sessions myself. The rest of the lineup is made up of the floral designers, photographers, and farmer florists I most want to learn from, and I am bringing them together so we can all learn at the same time.
Choose Your Pass
***A Note On Upgrading To All Access***
The Live Pass is built for the week. You show up live, watch each day's sessions, ask your questions, and you are with us through Friday.
All Access is built for the year. You get to come back to any session months later, when you are planning your spring color work, photographing a new variety, or designing for a fall wedding. The replays are yours, the Q&A panel recordings are yours, and the bonuses speakers share with their sessions are yours.
If you want to be able to return to these sessions after September, All Access is the right ticket for you.
