Floral and Nursery Operations

Why do Florists, Greenhouse and Nursery Operations choose us for their Insurance needs?

Even if you are not in the market for insurance right now, you owe it to yourself to come talk with us for a few minutes

 

WE UNDERSTAND YOUR BUSINESS

You run a nursery, greenhouse, or floral business.  The hours are long but so are the rewards.  You work in surroundings you love, servicing customers you care about, and you have a direct connection to the seasons, the natural environment and the world of horticulture.

Your stock is highly perishable. Your equipment is expensive.  You may work with hazardous chemicals or dangerous machinery.  And you face fierce competition from supermarkets and discount stores.  To meet these challenges,you need more than loyal customers, marketing skills and business savvy - you need protection against the unexpected.

How well do you know the risks you face?

Could you recover from the unexpected? Is your business - and your family - protected against catastrophic loss, accidents, liability claims or loss of income?

Green enterprise owners need flexible, focused insurance that addresses specific exposures and goals.  Satisfying this need is not just a matter of calling an 800 number, getting a quote on a Web Site or buying a one-size-fits-all business owners policy. You need direct, personal service from an insurance agent who's willing to spend time with you, to tour your operation and to understand your concerns for the future.  You need a long term relationship with an agent and a company you can trust, so that as your needs change over time, you can manage your coverage to match your exposures.

As your Farm Family agent learns about you and your business, surveys your operation and assesses your current coverage's, he or she will help you look at potential risk and exposures through fresh eyes.

PROFESSIONAL INSURANCE REVIEWS

Risk is an inherent part of any green enterprise.  Whether you're a grower, wholesaler or retailer, you have a big investment in plants and equipment, a reliance on key employees, and frenzied seasonal demand for your products and services.  Your  agent understands the challenges you face; he or she will work closely with you to determine whether potential losses can be absorbed, managed through adjustment to your operation or addresses by carefully targeted insurance coverage.  Based on your business goals, exposures and concerns, your agent will help you prioritize and evaluate coverage options so you can make decisions that best meet your needs and budget.
