While you wouldn’t think that there could be anything more organic than a bouquet of flowers, you would be wrong.  Like any other harvested plant, flowers are generally grown with an abundance of chemicals and pesticides that are best left out of the equation.

In order to ensure that you are getting a truly organic bouquet in the US, look for the “Veriflora” certification.  This ensures sustainable crop production and ecosystem protection for the area surrounding the farm.  Fair labor practices and product quality are also included in this rigorous standard.

Where to Buy:

• Any US local flower shop that supports the Veriflora standard – ask for it if they don’t.
• Organic Bouquet - USA
• EcoFlora – Canada
