Business is Blooming
http://www.sustainablefingerlakes.org/map/listing/business-is-bloomingBusiness is Blooming is a sustainably focused florist specializing in weddings, events, gifts and CSA inspired floral subscriptions for businesses and individuals. The majority of our featured blooms and botanicals are sourced within 200 miles of Ithaca and grown as close as our on site cutting garden. In winter, we choose growers certified for environmental and social standards. We create design armatures from curly willow, bamboo and other natural elements instead of petroleum-based floral foam. Our flowers are arranged into up-cycled, re-used vases or containers made from natural or recycled material. All clippings and old arrangements from the cleanup of events or our corporate fresh flower subscription service are composted with help from Natural Upcycling.
