When we talk about working with local farmers to source sustainably grown greenery it’s not just PR talk, throwing buzz words into the mix and then ordering everything from Holland.
We spend months contacting dozens (if not hundreds!) of farmers direct - moss farmers, arable farmers, Christmas tree farmers, small holding farmers, flower farmers!
Occasionally they are familiar with what & how we’re looking to source foliages, but much of the time we have to come up with a unique supply system that works for both of us.
These photos are the gorgeous evergreens that we buy from the farm directly next door to our HQ. Every couple of days these pickups drop off truck fulls of freshly cut greenery straight from the farm.
The bags used are repurposed from other farm operations and we send them back to be refilled once we’ve emptied them.
That totals zero packaging waste (not even a string!) and no more than a mile journey to reach us.
This year we are working directly with at least seven farmers and certainly for us, the extra effort is definitely worth it!
