Eco-statement
My Guiding principles
❀ I use organic methods (no nasty chemicals, pesticides or fungicides).
❀ Soil health is as important as the flowers. Certified Organic compost tea is brewed on-site and applied regularly to add beneficial fungi, & other microorganisms to the earth.
❀ All plant waste is composted on-site to feed the soil. In addition mushroom compost (from a local mushroom farm) is applied yearly.
❀ Flowers are picked to order to avoid waste. That means the flower’s don’t need to be refrigerated, saving energy.
❀ Sustainable packaging is used: no plastic other than recycled plant pots; biodegradable & recycled paper is used to wrap flowers.
❀ Ribbons are organic or recycled material dyed with natural materials such as acorns and vegetables.
❀ Wherever possible local products are sourced such as Somerset willow for wreaths. At times I may source flowers from local growers.
❀ Dead headed edible blooms are given to a lady to make dried rabbit snacks.
❀ Flowers are dried naturally (no preservatives or dyes).
❀ Certain flowers are left for pollinators and the seeds, where possible are saved.
❀ Delivery is limited within a four-mile radius to reduce any carbon impact.
