At Flowers Downe, we believe that beautiful blooms and environmental responsibility go hand in hand. Our passion for floristry extends beyond creative arrangements – we are dedicated to helping Downe flourish sustainably. As an eco-friendly flower shop, we constantly innovate to reduce our carbon footprint, support responsible sourcing, and deliver fresh flowers in a way that’s kind to the planet.
Much of the waste associated with traditional floristry comes from excess packaging. That’s why Flowers Downe prioritises the use of eco packaging for every bouquet we deliver. Our signature wraps and boxes are made from recycled, biodegradable or compostable materials, ensuring your floral gift brings only joy – never landfill waste. Even our ribbons and cards are selected for their minimal environmental impact, without sacrificing the luxury finish our customers expect.
Supporting local growers is central to our sustainable flower delivery in Downe. By sourcing as many blooms as possible from nearby farms, we reduce transportation emissions, uphold freshness, and bolster the local economy. Seasonal flowers take centre stage in our arrangements, offering you the best of what’s blooming right here in the Downe area. This approach results in fewer air miles, lower carbon emissions, and truly vibrant, long-lasting bouquets.
When our designs call for exotic or out-of-season flowers, we go the extra mile to ensure they are ethically sourced. We partner with certified Fairtrade growers who guarantee safe working conditions and fair wages for farm workers across the globe. By choosing Fairtrade flowers, we offer you peace of mind that your purchase supports sustainable farming practices and communities, both near and far. Every stem in a Flowers Downe bouquet is chosen with social and environmental values in mind.
Flower delivery in Downe shouldn’t cost the earth. Our commitment to eco-friendly deliveries includes investing in a fleet of low-carbon and electric vans. These vehicles are specifically chosen for their reduced emissions, ensuring that every journey is as green as possible.
