Foundation in Sustainable Floristry.

Over the last 50 years, the flower industry globalised and expanded with cut flowers air-Freighted across the world every day. Floral design has also reached new frontiers driven by convenience and increasing consumer expectations. Today modern floristry is unsustainable. A Foundation in Sustainable Floristry explores the industry’s issues — from the impacts of flower farming, to inequities in the global supply chain and the flood of plastic waste — with solutions for change. Students will discover a better way to approach floristry. Our evidence-driven program gives students a practical pathway to sustainability emphasising the important role florists play as ambassadors for nature.
