the Flower TruckSelling Australian grown, seasonal fresh flowers direct from the farmers to you.
Where to find us.
Every market provides a new and vibrant array of individual stems, wrapped bunches and posy jars depending on what is currently in season.
The flower truck ‘Sandy’ and I are not currently hitting the streets through Summer.
We may do some pop-up markets during autumn and winter.
The Flower Truck Story.
The Farlows’ Floriculture truck is a 1985 Toyota Landcruiser that originally belonged to my dad, Paul. When Paul retired from his property in Childers, Queensland in 2018, the truck became mine. It was a well-used farm vehicle with good, old bones, but needed some love.
In early 2020, I decided to launch the ‘Flower Truck’ to the streets of the Sunshine Coast which lead to a full restoration.
The name of the truck ‘Sandy’ holds a special place in our hearts - being named after my Mother who passed in 2019. She was one of our greatest supporters and we’re proud to carry on her legacy within the business.

Take what you need, leave what you canCommunity Boxes on The Flower Truck.
On the Flower Truck I have the following boxes for community sharing. Everyone is welcome to donate or take items from the boxes.
Community LibraryWhere we can all share magazines and books on… you guessed it! Growing stuff, soil, worms, compost, fermenting, preserving, flower arranging etc.
If you have any books on these topics or would like to learn about them call in, say hello & have a look through the library box.
RecyclingSome ideas for items that can be swapped or donated:
Large glass jars – for flower posy jars. These don’t need to have a lid.
Jars with lids – for preserving food, jams, chutneys etc.
Old vases – Reused to sell flowers in.
Rubber bands – for bunching flowers.
Clean plastic bags – used for when customers need to transport their bunches of flowers.
Newspapers – used for composting or weed control.
Egg cartons – used as seedling trays or broken up & put in compost bins.
Excess Produce boxThis box is for everyone to enjoy! The purpose of the box is to share delicious nutritional homegrown food, to help reduce waste, promote urban sustainability in less food miles & simply share the joy of giving.
Some ideas of items to be shared are: Any fresh seasonal produce from your garden, fruit, seedlings, vegetables, flowers, herbs, seeds. This is a community box.
