Reimagining the Supply Chain

Approximately 80% of flowers sold in the U.S. are imported from outside the country!

Industrialized operations grow flowers bred to live for days or weeks out of water. Often, the fragrance is bred out to extend shelf life and replaced with perfume.
Studies show imports can include a cocktail of 100+ pesticides and preservatives to help them survive. Yikes. These pesticides impact the health of workers and communities growing the flowers and the florists handling the flowers.
Conventional farming techniques – the use of chemicals to fight pests and weeds – increases greenhouse gas emissions, disrupts microorganisms, leads to water pollution, and soil erosion.
