keep it fresh & local!

The majority of flowers sold in the U.S. are imported, and many come from industrial farms, where they are grown with chemical fertilizers and sprayed with toxic pesticides. They've even been fumigated at the border. Who knows what's on your roses!

When you purchase a subscription from us, you get flowers that have been grown minutes from your door and nurtured from seed to bloom without the use of toxic pesticides or chemical fertilizers. You are helping protect & increase habitat for pollinators locally and nationwide, as 5% of profits from subscription sales will be donated to the Xerces Society, a science-based conservation organization with a focus on habitat conservation and restoration, species conservation, protecting pollinators, contributing to watershed health, and reducing harm to invertebrates from pesticide use. The pollinators thank you! and we thank you, too. We couldn't do what we love without your support. Our bouquet subscription is a form of community supported agriculture (CSA), The CSA model helps to maintain sustainable farming as a viable way of life for small-scale farms and assures farmers that their hard work and the fruits (or flowers!) of their labor won't go to waste. 

There are many local farms that grow flowers organically and utilize sustainable practices. While we cultivate most of our own flowers, we also proudly support other local growers. When doing design in the winter, we do our best to source foliage and blooms grown in the US and Canada, as well as incorporating dried and evergreen elements. During the growing season, all flowers and other elements used in our bouquets are locally grown, and all wild plants used are ethically harvested. We only wild-harvest "weeds" for use in arrangements, never protected wildflowers.
