Why Local Flowers make sense.
WHY FLOWERS?
While healthy food is a basic necessity, flowers play an important role in our lives. We see them on special occasions such as Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Weddings and Birthdays and even funerals. There are an excellent way to express emotions such as love, gratitude, congratulations and condolences and even deliver an apology.  Increasingly, flowers are being used to create a pleasant atmosphere in our daily lives, whether at work or home or in public spaces such as restaurants. .
WHY LOCAL?
In recent years, the movement to buy local has been gaining momentum that accelerated with COVID. An increasing number of people seek to invest in their communities, supporting shops, restaurants and other businesses. Local businesses are perceived to provide better, more personalized service.  Consumers feel good about supporting the local economy while often getting better quality products.
The case for local flowers is even stronger. Almost 80% of the flowers in the United States are imported. Think of the environmental footprint of shipping these by air cargo. Additionally, imported flowers need to be conditioned by chemicals preservatives, insecticides and fungicides to survive their journey. In contrast local flowers are fresher, last longer and you have more diversity as not all flowers travel well.
