Your Local Brooklyn Florist: 3 Reasons Why We Avoid Flower Foam
At Vivi Fleurz, we believe that every bloom tells a story, and our commitment to the environment is an integral part of that narrative. In this post, discover the three compelling reasons why we proudly choose to avoid flower foam in our floral designs.
1. Environmental Stewardship: We take our responsibility to Mother Earth seriously. Flower foam, often used in the floral industry, poses environmental challenges due to its non-biodegradable nature. By steering clear of flower foam, we contribute to reducing waste and minimizing our ecological footprint, aligning our practices with a greener, more sustainable vision for the future.
2. Elevated Design with Sustainable Materials: Our commitment to sustainable floristry goes beyond avoiding flower foam; it extends to embracing alternative materials that enhance the beauty of each arrangement. Explore how we incorporate eco-friendly design practices, using materials that not only respect the environment but also add authenticity and charm to your floral experience. One of these alternatives being Oshun Pouches and Agra Wool. These are both zero-waste options that are easily compostable within about 6 months. Oshun pouches are great for deliveries, as they can be composted in your garden or your city compost.
3. Health and Well-being: Your well-being is as important to us as the beauty of our creations. Flower foam contains substances that can be harmful to both florists and recipients. By avoiding flower foam, we prioritize the health of our team and ensure that every bloom you bring into your space is a breath of fresh air, free from unnecessary chemicals.
When you choose Vivi Fleurz, you're not just selecting flowers; you're supporting a commitment to a more sustainable and mindful approach to floristry. Our decision to avoid flower foam is a testament to our dedication to creating beautiful, eco-conscious designs that align with your values and contribute to a healthier planet.
As a trusted Brooklyn florist, we invite you to join us on this journey towards sustainable floristry. Together, let's celebrate the beauty of blooms while nurturing a healthier, more vibrant world for generations to come.
