At Flowers Friern Barnet, we believe that beauty and sustainability go hand in hand. Our mission is to bring the natural splendour of flowers to our community with an unwavering commitment to the environment. As more Friern Barnet customers and local businesses ask for sustainable flower delivery options, we’ve made it our goal to offer eco-friendly flowers and environmentally responsible practices at every stage.
One of the core aspects of our sustainable approach is thoughtful, eco-friendly packaging. We understand the importance of minimising single-use plastics and reducing landfill waste. All bouquets and arrangements from Flowers Friern Barnet are wrapped in recycled, biodegradable paper or compostable materials when possible. Where additional support is needed, our packaging uses plant-based or recyclable options, ensuring that beauty never comes at the expense of the planet.
Even our ribbons and tags are selected with sustainability in mind, using natural fibres or materials sourced from responsible suppliers. Our customers can enjoy floral gifts that delight the senses while leaving a minimal ecological footprint.
Supporting local growers is central to our effort to reduce the carbon emissions associated with flower transportation. Wherever possible, we source our blooms from trusted growers in and around Friern Barnet and greater London. This approach not only guarantees freshness—giving our customers longer-lasting, vibrant displays—but also supports the local economy and reduces flower miles.
By choosing local varieties in season, we minimise the need for long-distance imports. For special requests, we always strive to find the most sustainable sourcing option without compromising on quality.
For those occasions when we do need to look further afield, we carefully select suppliers who share our values. A significant portion of our imported flowers carry Fairtrade or similar ethical certifications. This ensures that growers around the world are paid fairly, work in safe conditions, and practice environmentally sound farming.
Choosing Fairtrade flowers supports not only workers and their communities, but also encourages the use of responsible water management, reduced pesticide use, and efforts to promote biodiversity on flower farms.
We recognise that getting flowers from our store to your door is an important part of our environmental impact. That’s why we invest in a modern fleet using low-carbon vehicles for flower delivery in Friern Barnet. Our vans are regularly maintained to optimise fuel efficiency, and we’re continually expanding our use of hybrid and electric vehicles as part of our longer-term sustainability goals.
By grouping deliveries whenever possible and planning efficient routes, we further decrease emissions and help keep the air in Friern Barnet cleaner for everyone.
Our dedication to eco-friendly practices isn’t just an internal policy—it reflects the strong values we see in our Friern Barnet customers and business partners. Many in our community choose us specifically for our sustainable flowers and delivery methods, recognising the difference even small choices can make. We’re proud to collaborate with local businesses and individuals who share the vision of a greener, more beautiful Friern Barnet.
Sustainability is a journey, and we’re committed to ongoing improvement. We regularly review our practices, seek feedback from customers, and look for new ways to innovate in eco-friendly flower delivery and ethical sourcing. By choosing Flowers Friern Barnet, you’re not only bringing a breath of fresh air into your home or workplace—you’re also supporting a business that places the environment and community well-being at the heart of everything we do.
Together, we can celebrate nature’s beauty while protecting the planet for generations to come.
