Planting the seed
Locally grown, ethically sourced, sustainably made
You may be wondering: what are wildflowers and native seeds? How are they different from the flowers and plants I have in my garden?
This photo was taken by Northern Wildflowers at their local farm located in Whitefish, Ontario.
Discovering Rootree
When looking for suppliers, Jenny reveals that Northern Wildflowers “look for Canadian businesses and keep it as local as possible.” She further comments, “It was so cool that [Rootree is] from Canada and operate out of Ontario. Environmentally, this is amazing in terms of shipping. It’s awesome.”
What is the RT Foundation?
As a small business owner, Jenny wears many hats. Her daily routine consists of everything ranging from financial management to sales and marketing, overseeing partnerships, and, as she puts it, “getting done whatever needs to be done.”
“The application process for the RT | Foundation Award was very streamlined. All the questions were very fair, made sense, and easy to answer. Overall, the process was very simple. It was a no-brainer to apply.”
When she found out that Northern Wildflowers was one of the recipients of the 2021 RT | Foundation Award, Jenny admits she was very humbled and excited to be recognized by another business.
“When you have a company that has an award, it is different because they get what other small businesses need. It was incredibly flattering to think that Rootree felt we were deserving of this award.”
It’s all about pouch design

Smile for your close up
Jenny could not have been happier with the photography as the photos perfectly embodied Northern Wildflowers and their customer base. “Rootree really put thought into what they wanted the pictures to say to people, and that was really important to us.”
