Our Green Initiative: Sustainable Floristry in Western New York
At Flowers by Johnny, we believe that our connection to nature extends beyond the beautiful blooms we arrange. As a florist serving Kenmore, Cheektowaga, Amherst, Tonawanda, Buffalo, and North Tonawanda, we recognize our responsibility to the environment that provides us with the gorgeous flowers we work with daily.
Sustainable Practices in Our Flower Shop
Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword for us—it’s woven into every aspect of our business. From the moment flowers arrive at our shop to when they reach your hands, we implement environmentally conscious practices that reduce our ecological footprint:
- Locally sourced flowers when possible, reducing transportation emissions
- Water conservation techniques in our flower preparation
- Composting flower waste to return nutrients to the soil
- Eco-friendly packaging options for our arrangements
Funeral Flower Arrangements: Honoring Life Sustainably
During times of loss, expressing sympathy through flowers provides comfort. Our funeral flower arrangements not only convey respect and remembrance but do so with environmental mindfulness:
- Biodegradable floral foam alternatives
- Recyclable containers and vases
- Seasonal flower selections that require fewer resources to grow
- Options for plantable memorial arrangements that continue life’s cycle
Supporting Our Local Ecosystem
Western New York’s natural beauty inspires us daily. Our commitment to the local environment includes:
- Partnering with regional growers who practice sustainable agriculture
- Using organic fertilizers and pest management in our own growing practices
- Educating customers about native plants that support local pollinators
- Participating in community clean-up initiatives throughout Buffalo and surrounding areas
Reducing Our Carbon Footprint
We’re constantly finding ways to minimize our environmental impact:
- Energy-efficient lighting and refrigeration in our shop
- Route optimization for our delivery vehicles
- Digital order processing to reduce paper waste
- Reusable and repurposed materials in our floral designs
