Fair trade flowers

When searching for fair trade and eco friendly flowers, its important to recognise that many of the standard cut flowers found in shops and delivered by large companies are grown using peat and fertilisers. Digging out swathes of peat damages local habitats and increases carbon emissions. Fertilisers can harm wildlife and rivers. As if that weren't bad enough, many are grown using pesticides which harm bees, pollute waterways and result in loss of biodiversity.

Organically grown, fair trade flowers do not use artificial pesticides or fertilisers and are kinder on the environment. When ordering flowers for loved ones and special occasions why not choose natural flowers, with the colour, vibrancy and smell that nature creates herself instead of chemically-laden flowers?

Eco friendly flowers

The Fair Flowers Fair Plants standards code adheres to the following principles:

  • Freedom of association and collective bargaining
  • Equality of treatment
  • Living wages
  • Working Hours
  • Health and Safety
  • Pesticides and Chemicals
  • Security of employment
  • Protection of the environment
  • Child labour is not used
  • No forced labour

 

Eco friendly and fair trade flowers have a lower carbon footprint, use less water, protect the environment and help to empower women through gender equality. Next time you buy flowers look for eco friendly suppliers.
