Members’ Congress and 4th General Assembly of FLORNET

The Members’ Congress and 4th General Assembly of the “European network for professional education in floristry - FLORNET”, held in November 2014 at l’ École des Fleuristes de Paris, was a successful meeting.

After the official welcome by Mrs. Danyèle HUGON (president of the Chambre syndicale des Fleuristes d'Île de Paris) and Mr. Vincent Dinet (principal of l’ École des Fleuristes de Paris) the Members Congress started with the annual program, the General Assembly.

At the second day of the congress, the FLORNET members attended a marvelous demonstration of Mr. Jacques Castagné, one of the famous Florists in France.

Part of the members’ congress was the visit of several famous flower shops in Paris, a visit of Rungis, the Parisian flower market and a guided tour in l’École des Fleuristes de Paris.

Cultural aspects of Paris were gained by i.e. attending a typical Parisian theatre production and a tour by boat on the Seine.
