Sustainability at Flowers South Harrow: Caring for the Environment
Why Sustainability Matters to Us
At Flowers South Harrow, we believe that beautiful blooms should never come at the expense of our planet. With the growing awareness surrounding environmental issues, our South Harrow customers and local businesses increasingly value sustainability, and we are proud to lead the way in eco-friendly flower delivery in South Harrow. Our ongoing commitment to reducing our environmental impact is reflected in everything we do, from sourcing to delivery.
Eco Packaging for Every Order
One of our core promises is to ensure that every bouquet and arrangement leaves our shop in eco-conscious packaging. We have phased out conventional plastics and single-use materials, opting instead for biodegradable wraps, recycled paper, and compostable ribbons. This eco-friendly approach means that our packaging is not only beautiful, but also kind to the environment. After enjoying your flowers, all packaging can be recycled or composted, helping to reduce waste in South Harrow and beyond. Our dedication to responsible packaging is just one way we strive to provide truly eco-friendly flowers in South Harrow.
Locally Sourced Flowers: Supporting Community and the Planet
Whenever possible, we source our blooms from local growers and suppliers, reducing the miles your flowers travel before reaching your doorstep. Local sourcing not only supports smaller growers and the South Harrow economy, but also minimises the carbon footprint associated with air-freighting flowers from far-off destinations. By choosing seasonal, locally grown flowers, we can offer arrangements that are both fresh and sustainable. Our customers appreciate knowing that their floral gifts help to support the local community while also being environmentally responsible.
Fairtrade Flowers: Blossoms with a Conscience
When local flowers are not in season or are unavailable, we ensure our imported stems are Fairtrade certified wherever possible. Fairtrade flowers guarantee that growers receive fair wages and safe working conditions, while also promoting sustainable farming practices. By choosing Fairtrade, we help support farmers and their communities around the world—while making certain that your flowers are ethically sourced and environmentally mindful. This ethical approach complements our mission to be the preferred provider of sustainable flower delivery in South Harrow.
Low-Carbon Flower Delivery Vans
Our commitment to sustainability doesn’t end with our flowers and packaging. To minimise emissions in the local community, we use a new generation of low-carbon delivery vans for all our flower deliveries in South Harrow. By investing in modern, fuel-efficient vehicles—and incorporating electric vans in our fleet wherever possible—we significantly cut down on greenhouse gases, helping to keep our neighbourhood cleaner and greener. Our focus on sustainable flower delivery ensures that every step, from shop to doorstep, is handled with care for the environment.
