Good evening. There have been a few new followers recently so thought I should introduce myself. I'm Sarah, part-time primary teacher, new florist and Mum to 3 little ones.
My aim with Miss Bramble is to bring a little bit of joy in celebrating the floral treasures of the season in as sustainable a way as I can manage.
As a flower lover, I was always frustrated that I couldn't find local, affordable flowers wrapped without plastic and so I started to look for other options. This quickly uncovered some deeply worrying practices that explain why some supermarket blooms are often so cheap, with horrendous chemical use affecting growers, land and water.
I use British flowers, sustainable techniques learnt from the very clever , sustainable packaging and grow as much as I can depite a distinct lack of green fingers. You won't find anything treated wih chemicals, or any plastic, but you may find the odd ladybird. If you have any suggestions to help me keep improving just let me know.
Flowers for the weekend available for the next 7 Fridays and a very exciting collaboration next weekend which I will tell you more about tomorrow!
