Another amazing opportunity to share the world of sustainable flowers here in Portland! Apartment Guide asked us for our tips on how to boost happiness in your homes for spring and we didn’t hold back!
Here’s what we had to say: “Contact local flower farmers for 100% locally grown blooms; many offer fantastic subscriptions and CSA programs for a variety of stunning arrangements every week,” suggests Lynsea Coy, owner of Coy & Co., a sustainable florist in Portland, OR. “Avoid using floral foam or flowers treated with harmful chemicals like dyes, paints, bleaches, or preservatives, as they are detrimental to the environment and your health. The best way to keep your space alive is to pay tribute to the land you're occupying by celebrating those that honor and steward it carefully and sustainably.”
