Sustainability at the Heart of Flowers Highgate
Our Commitment to Eco-Friendly Flowers in Highgate
At Flowers Highgate, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s at the core of everything we do. We understand that our customers and local businesses in Highgate are increasingly conscious of their environmental impact. That’s why we’ve made a promise to deliver beautiful floral arrangements while prioritising the health of our planet. From our eco-friendly sourcing methods to our energy-efficient delivery service, we’re proud to offer Highgate’s most sustainable flower delivery experience.
Eco Packaging for a Greener Tomorrow
Traditional floristry often relies on single-use plastics and non-recyclable materials. At Flowers Highgate, we’ve replaced these with sustainable alternatives at every step. Your arrangements are wrapped in compostable materials, recycled kraft paper, and natural jute twine. Even our gift cards are printed on recycled paper using eco-friendly inks. Our packaging not only protects your flowers, but also ensures that every delivery leaves a lighter footprint on the environment. We’re always seeking new ways to innovate, choosing eco packaging options that are both attractive and gentle on the planet.
Locally Sourced Blooms for Sustainable Flower Delivery Highgate
One key way to reduce our carbon impact is sourcing flowers locally whenever possible. Flowers Highgate is dedicated to working with trusted growers and horticulturists in and near London, supporting local agriculture and minimising the distance your flowers travel from field to vase. By prioritising local blooms when in season, we offer you the freshest flowers with a significantly reduced environmental impact. This locally rooted approach ensures that every bouquet represents both the beauty and sustainability ideals valued by the Highgate community.
Fairtrade Flowers: Thoughtful Choices Beyond the Bouquet
While local flowers are our first choice, we recognise that some floral varieties beloved by our Highgate customers are grown further afield. For these, we commit to sourcing certified Fairtrade flowers. This guarantees that the people behind your flowers are paid fairly and work in good conditions, while also enabling investment in environmental protection projects in their communities. Fairtrade certification holds our suppliers to high standards, helping to create a more equitable and sustainable global flower industry. With every Fairtrade bouquet, you can be assured that your gift is spreading joy in Highgate and around the world.

Delivery is a crucial part of our service, and one that Flowers Highgate approaches with sustainability in mind. Our fleet of low-carbon and hybrid electric vans significantly reduces emissions compared to conventional vehicles. Routes are planned for maximum efficiency, minimising miles driven and ensuring your flowers arrive fresh while our environmental impact stays low. Representing one of Highgate’s only flower shops with dedicated eco-friendly delivery, we’re proud that each order helps to keep our local air cleaner and greener.
