At Flowers Dalston, we believe that beautiful blooms shouldn’t come at the expense of our planet. In the heart of Dalston, our team is dedicated to leading the way in sustainable flower delivery, providing eco-friendly options for both customers and local businesses. Sustainability is at the core of everything we do, from the very first bud to the final, hand-tied bouquet that reaches your doorstep.
Traditional flower packaging often contributes to landfill waste and environmental harm. At Flowers Dalston, we've made significant changes to how we present and deliver your flowers. Our packaging is carefully selected to minimise environmental impact—using recycled, biodegradable, or reusable materials whenever possible. From compostable wraps to recycled paper cards and reusable ribbons, every small detail is considered with our planet in mind. We avoid single-use plastics, ensuring that your flowers arrive as gently on the earth as they do to you.
Local sourcing is a cornerstone of our sustainability ethos. By working closely with growers within and around Dalston, we drastically reduce the carbon footprint associated with long-distance transportation. Our focus on British and local blooms also means that our arrangements are fresh, vibrant, and packed with character, reflecting each season’s natural beauty. When seasons call for international varieties, we always prioritise ethical, Fairtrade-certified growers who share our environmental values.
People across Dalston have voiced their support for ethical sourcing, and we’re proud to offer Fairtrade flowers throughout our range. Fairtrade certification assures that growers receive fair wages, secure working conditions, and support for sustainable farming practices. By choosing Fairtrade, we also help protect valuable ecosystems and encourage community investment in the regions where flowers are cultivated. We regularly review our partnerships to ensure we’re promoting the best environmental and social outcomes at every stage.
The final step in your flower order shouldn’t leave a heavy mark on the environment. At Flowers Dalston, we invest in a modern fleet of low-carbon delivery vans designed to keep emissions to a minimum. Where possible, we opt for electric vehicles or bikes for short-distance deliveries. Each journey is carefully planned to optimise routes, reducing fuel consumption and ensuring your flowers arrive fresh—while keeping Dalston’s air cleaner.
We know that sustainability is highly valued by customers and businesses throughout Dalston. Our community has inspired us to continually challenge ourselves, think creatively, and nurture green initiatives throughout every part of our business. Whether it’s a thoughtful bouquet for a friend or a regular delivery to a local shop, we are proud that our flowers bring joy while treading lightly on the earth.
Choosing Flowers Dalston means choosing a florist founded on environmental ethics. Our eco packaging, emphasis on local and Fairtrade flowers, and low-carbon delivery reaffirm our commitment to both our customers and the planet. We don’t just deliver flowers—we deliver on our promise to do so responsibly. Join us in supporting a greener, more beautiful Dalston with every bouquet.
