Why Fall is the Perfect Season to Fundraise with Flower Bulbs
Fall is the best season to launch a fundraiser with Dutch Mill Bulbs Fundraising. Earn 50% profit from every item sold… that is $7.50 for items A-Q and $37.50 for every item R sold. These high quality flower bulbs are planted in the fall bulbs and bloom in spring!
Fall isn’t just for pumpkin spice and football games, it’s the prime season for planting flower bulbs. And here’s the secret: it’s also the best time to raise money for your group.
Fall = Fundraising Gold
There’s something magical about fall. Crisp mornings, football games under the lights, pumpkin patches, and that familiar smell of leaves crunching underfoot.
But here’s something most fundraising leaders don’t realize: fall is the single best season to run a flower bulb fundraiser.
Why? Because planting happens now, and your supporters are ready to buy.
With Dutch Mill Bulbs Fundraising, you can turn this natural season of planting into your group’s most profitable, least stressful fundraiser.

Why Fall Planting Creates Perfect Fundraising Timing
Unlike wrapping paper or candy fundraisers that can run any time of year, flower bulbs thrive on timing. They need cool soil to rest all winter before bursting into color in spring.
That makes fall a “built-in deadline” for fundraising success:
Supporters want bulbs now. They know they can’t wait until December or March.
Your group earns faster. With urgency built in, sales wrap up in just weeks.
Spring payoff. Every bloom reminds supporters of your team, troop, or PTA.
Instead of begging people to buy products they don’t need, you’re offering something they actually want right now.

Step 1: Choose Your Season
Let’s be real: too many fundraisers take more than they give.
Cookie dough? You’re lucky to keep 30%.
Gift wrap? Families groan at the prices.
Candy? It disappears in minutes, leaving your group with a sugar hangover.

And unlike other programs, you don’t need to gamble on big upfront orders. We provide brochures and an online store for free. You sell. We ship. You profit.
