BGF Tenure Groups
The BGF Tenure Groups are designed to create a space where we could facilitate interactions between florists who look like you. The unique part of Tenure Groups, is that they are broken down by how long you have been in floral so you can better relate to the women who are right where you are.
​
It's broken down like this: Newbie florist (less than 2 years), Associate florist (2-4 years), Mid florist (5-9 years), and Veteran florist (10+). Each group will address specific topics from getting started in floral, to succession planning, and how to grow.
