About

Welcome to Open Bud DC - Where Beauty Blossoms at Your Doorstep.

Open Bud's flower market, Fluertelier, is a creation forged by talented designers Chris Alvear and Ward Orem. This charming community gathering place is located at 425 M St SW, in the open-air market in Southwest D.C, and operates every Saturday. Neighbors come together every week to celebrate the beauty of flowers, support local vendors, and revel in locally sourced produce. Open Bud offers a wide range of services, including premade mason jar arrangements, the freedom to pick your own blooms and create custom arrangements, and a heartfelt commitment to building connections within the community 'one stem at a time.'

But that's not all. Open Bud also features wreath design services, ideal for adding a touch of floral elegance to your home. They understand the value of consistent floral beauty, offering monthly flower subscriptions, so you can enjoy fresh flowers regularly.

For special occasions and events, Open Bud is your go-to place for stunning floral arrangements. They take pride in curating and crafting arrangements that leave a lasting impression. And if you can't make it to the market, they've got you covered with local flower display delivery.

Open Bud's mission is to bring smiles to the faces of their customers through the magic of flowers, and they do so by offering a diverse range of services and a strong sense of community. Additionally, Open Bud demonstrates a commitment to giving back by donating fresh flowers to the Lisner Home, a retirement community for low-income seniors in Washington, D.C. Their generosity helps brighten the lives of those in need and enriches the local community in multiple ways.
