Make an Organic Connection with OrganicBouquet.com

NOVATO, CALIFORNIA, Dec. 3 -/E-Wire/-- Organic Bouquet Inc., the nations leading organic floral provider, announced today the launch of its newly redesigned web site www.OrganicBouquet.com

OrganicBouquet.com is the premier online source for socially and environmentally responsible gifts. The website features a beautiful selection of seasonal organic flowers available for shipment anywhere in the USA, including: certified organic Ecuadorian roses grown by Biogarden, the first commercial rose farm in South America to obtain a 100% organic certification; organic golden sunflowers grown in the sun-drenched hills of Southern California; stunning South African bouquets grown on a land trust in the lush hills of the Cape Valley; dazzling Dutch tulips grown biodynamically (a step above organic), fragrant French lavender grown in beautiful Napa Valley; and breathtaking European style country garden bouquets.

OrganicBouquet.com has also extended its product line to include tree ripened organic fruit boxes, gourmet organic food baskets, and a gallery of handcrafted vases from a variety of countries such as Thailand, Peru and Brazil.

The new website offers visitors a special connection to its world of organic farmers and artisans. Visitors to the site can "meet the grower" or "meet the artisan" and learn about the producers of these wonderful products.

"There are extraordinary people doing amazing things behind the products we consume. Farmers and artisans help make our world a beautiful place. Their special care for the earth or for creating works of beauty deserves acknowledgement. I personally enjoy products much more when I have a connection with the producer and know something about the origin. OrganicBouquet.com was created to deliver this experience," stated Company Founder and CEO Gerald Prolman.

"Our flowers have a deeper layer of beauty that comes from the comfort of knowing that the people who grow our products and the land they grow it on are treated with respect."

Gerald Prolman, a pioneer in the organic food business, founded Organic Bouquet Inc., in 2001. In just a few years, and almost single-handedly, Prolman's passion and vision has created a new category in the American floral industry: organic flowers.

Prolman started Organic Bouquet because he saw a need for commercial fresh cut flowers to be grown in a sustainable manner. Commercial flowers are typically grown with a variety of fertilizers, insecticides, fungicides, nematocides and plant growth regulators. The U.S. does not inspect flowers grown here or abroad for pesticide residues. At the same time it requires that flowers arrive at our borders pest-free. Trade laws thus encourage the use of strong chemicals. In response Prolman encouraged the development of organically grown flowers in California, Oregon, Holland, Colombia, Ecuador and Panama.

The Company began as a wholesale provider of organic fresh cut flowers to leading upscale natural food retailers. Whole Foods Markets were among the first retailers to feature the Company's organic flowers.

Today, Organic Bouquet's flowers are available in stores nationwide and its entire gift line including organic fresh picked flowers, organic gourmet baskets, organic fresh fruits and hand-crafted vases can be purchased through its new gifting site, www.OrganicBouquet.com
