If you’ve been searching for bulk dried flowers in Canada, you’ve probably discovered how tricky it can be. Some come from overseas. Some are overly processed, bleached, or dyed. And some just don’t arrive looking anything like the photo.
I know the struggle — which is exactly why I decided to grow and dry my own flowers here in Ontario, on my small farm, Harvest Hill Flower Farm.
In this post, I’ll share the best places to buy dried flowers in bulk (including online shops and Canadian flower farms), plus why I believe locally grown, naturally dried flowers are worth the search.
The Demand for Dried Flowers in Canada Is Growing — Fast
Whether you're planning a DIY wedding, crafting wreaths, or stocking up for your small business, dried flowers are an affordable, long-lasting, and eco-friendly alternative to fresh blooms.
But not all dried flowers are created equal.
Some are:
-
Imported and sprayed with preservatives or dyes
-
Mass-produced and machine-dried, losing their natural shape
-
Packaged in plastic and crushed in transit
For something as delicate and beautiful as a flower, I think that’s a shame. And for meaningful projects like weddings or handmade gifts, I believe we deserve better.
The Most Popular Places to Buy Dried Flowers in Canada
Here’s where most people start looking:
1. Etsy Canada
There are plenty of Etsy sellers offering dried flowers by the bunch. It’s convenient, but you’ll want to read the fine print: many listings ship from Europe or the U.S., and some use dyes or synthetic fragrances.
That said, there are a few wonderful Canadian sellers — just check the “ships from” location before you order.
2. Amazon Canada
Amazon has bulk dried flower options, but I’d be cautious. Many are artificially colored, and quality is inconsistent. I’ve heard from brides and crafters who ordered bulk blooms only to be disappointed by crushed petals or musty scents.
3. Local Flower Farms (like mine!)
This is where the magic happens. By buying directly from a small-scale Canadian flower farm, you can get:
-
Naturally grown, air-dried flowers (no bleach, no dyes)
-
Blooms harvested at the peak of beauty
-
Unique varieties not found in mass-market shops
-
A real connection to the person who grew them
That’s what I offer here at Harvest Hill Flower Farm, just outside of Toronto. I grow my flowers with care — seed to stem — and dry them slowly using time-honoured methods. No shortcuts. Just beautifully preserved blooms that hold their shape and colour naturally.
Why I Started Drying My Own Flowers in Ontario
When I first started growing cut flowers, I loved the rush of summer colour. But watching all that beauty fade so quickly felt... wasteful. I wanted to give those blooms a second life — and let them be part of moments that lasted.
That’s how I began drying my own harvests.
Today, my dried flower collections are perfect for:
-
DIY brides making their own bouquets
-
Florists and stylists looking for Canadian-grown options
-
Crafters creating wreaths, ornaments, or wall art
-
Anyone who just loves the look of timeless, natural flowers
I grow without chemicals or synthetic fertilizers, and I let each variety dry in its own way — some upside down in bundles, some flat on screens. It’s slow and a little old-fashioned, but the results speak for themselves.
