At Florist Hackney, we take pride in championing eco-friendly flowers across Hackney—ensuring every bouquet not only delights the senses but also protects our local environment. Sustainability isn't a trend for us; it's central to who we are. Our customers in Hackney, including households and businesses, demand and value sustainable choices, and we are passionate about meeting and exceeding these expectations.
We prioritise sourcing our flowers from local growers wherever possible, significantly reducing the carbon footprint of our deliveries and supporting the Hackney economy. Local sourcing means our blooms are fresher, have a lower environmental impact thanks to minimal transport miles, and reflect the distinctive character of East London’s floristry. When local varieties aren’t available, we partner with reputable global suppliers who adhere to strong environmental standards.
Florist Hackney is committed to offering a beautiful range of Fairtrade flowers. By choosing Fairtrade, we help guarantee fair wages and safe working conditions for flower farmers worldwide, while promoting environmentally friendly farming practices. This ensures sustainable livelihoods and responsible stewardship of natural resources—values that echo loudly through Hackney's vibrant community.
Our dedication to the planet is evident in every order, right down to our packaging. We use recyclable, biodegradable, or compostable materials to wrap our bouquets and protect them in transit. No unnecessary plastics; just thoughtful, functional design that keeps flowers fresh and the planet cleaner. We encourage our customers to recycle or compost their packaging whenever possible. It’s a small step, but one that adds up to a significant reduction in environmental waste across Hackney.
Florist Hackney is also devoted to making delivery as sustainable as possible. Our fleet features low-carbon vehicles that operate efficiently, minimising emissions with every delivery across Hackney and East London. For larger orders or corporate clients, we coordinate grouped deliveries to reduce trips and further lower our carbon footprint. Every step of the journey, from florist to customer, is designed with environmental responsibility in mind.
We’re proud to be part of a Hackney community that genuinely cares about ecological impact. More and more of our customers and local businesses specifically request eco-friendly flowers and sustainable flower delivery options. Their feedback continually inspires us to push further, adopt new green practices, and lead by example in East London’s floristry scene. Together, we’re proving that beautiful blooms and sustainability can—and should—go hand in hand.
Our promise to sustainability doesn’t stop here. Florist Hackney regularly reviews and updates our practices to stay ahead in green innovation. We invest in staff training, embrace new sustainable materials, and listen closely to your suggestions and priorities. Our shared commitment ensures not only beautiful flowers, but a healthier future for Hackney and beyond.
