earth-friendly practices
Flowers need good soil, good air, and good sunlight to grow.

Below of are some of our guiding principles to ensure there will be beauty in the fields for generations to come:
All leftover organic materials (stems, leaves, buds) are composted and used in a local garden
Minimize floral foam for our larger arrangements by creating reusable structures using chicken wire and water tubes
We always source locally first. What flowers cannot be obtained locally are purchased directly from farms, cut to order, and overnighted to our location
By ordering directly from farms for each event, we minimize electricity usage. Bypassing the standard supply chain traditional florists participate avoids hundreds of hours of refrigeration and the associated energy use.
We source many of our vessels, especially for vintage and eclectic weddings, from Goodwill and other thrift stores. We then donate them back once the event is over.
