Ask the flower shop if it can create a "playground" floral arrangement that your organization can sell, keeping a portion of the profits from the arrangements. Market sales by selling around a special day, like the first day of spring, or Mother's Day.
Ask your florist to offer a flower-arranging class, donating registration fees to your project.
Encourage a florist to work with children on special flower-based crafts as part of the children's activities.
See if the floral shop can donate flowers as thank-you gifts for all of the build volunteers.
Donations of floral arrangements are great for raffles or as volunteer gifts/door prizes.
