The Heart Behind the Green Petal Project
At the heart of the Green Petal Project is a simple but powerful mission: to ensure that flowers used in events don’t end up in the trash but instead continue to bring lasting joy and beauty to as many people as possible.
We understand that joy and even healing comes through many different facets and that can include having beauty surround us, but let's make this even more sustainable. By repurposing event flowers and redistributing them we aim to create a bridge between the end of an event and the continued joy these flowers can bring.
