Florida Nursery, Growers & Landscape Association: FNGLA is an agricultural trade association working to enhance Florida's nursery and landscape industry.
FNGLA's Frontrunners Chapter set the stage late last week for @RepKatCammack's Veterans Roundtable. We are proud to support veterans and proud of our members who donated their time and materials. Special thanks to Ed Bravo, Phillip Hisey, Noah Hisey and Salmon's Wholesale Nursery
Fun fact: Florida has more landscape companies than any other state in the country and Florida’s nursery and landscape industry employs over 279,000 Floridians! That’s why I was happy to meet with the Florida Nursery, Growers and Landscape Association in Washington this week to talk about issues their industry faces, the importance of legal temporary immigration programs, and the need for a reliable workforce. We must continue to support Florida’s growers, nurseries, and landscapers.
FNGLA’s executive leaders had the opportunity to meet with lawmakers in Washington, D.C. this week, advocating for Florida’s nursery and landscape industry.
Today, Gov. DeSantis signed the #FloridaFarmBill into law, protecting the right of landscape pros to choose the equipment that works best for their businesses and customers. Thanks @GovRonDeSantis@FDACS@WiltonSimpson and the Florida Legislature for supporting our industry!
The 2026 Florida Farm Bill was passed today! This legislation is a win for every landscape professional in Florida. We are grateful to @FDACS Commissioner @WiltonSimpson, Rep. @dannyalvarezsr, Rep. Johnson, and Senator Truenow (@SodFatherFL), for their support.
Today, Florida Commissioner of Agriculture Wilton Simpson announced that beginning February 25, 2026, Florida’s agricultural producers can apply for more than $600 million in disaster assistance for impacts from the 2023 and 2024 hurricane seasons. In addition, Commissioner Simpson is asking the federal government for approval to use Florida’s disaster block grant program to immediately fund relief for agricultural producers impacted by the historic 2026 ice storm.
