Buying local Asheville blooms for your event helps support the local flower farms, their workers, horticulturists, florists, breweries, and even pollinators. Basically, creatures great and small benefit from a thriving local flower economy.

Why LOCAL Flowers Are The Best Choice For Your Asheville Event

There are several reasons to choose locally-grown flowers:

  1. Supporting the local economy: When you buy locally-grown flowers, you are supporting small businesses and local flower farmers, which can help to boost the local economy.
  2. Reducing the carbon footprint: Local flowers have a lower carbon footprint because they do not need to be transported over long distances.
  3. Fresher flowers: Local flowers may be fresher because they have not been shipped for long periods of time.
  4. Promoting biodiversity: Local flower farms may use more diverse plant varieties and may be more supportive of local pollinators and other wildlife.
  5. Protecting the environment: Local flower farmers may be more likely to use sustainable growing practices that are gentler on the environment.

By choosing locally-grown flowers, you can help to promote sustainability and support the local community.

That’s why I’m shouting from my mountaintop to choose, local, sustainable Asheville Flowers.
