The IMPERFECT Conservationist, Episode #5: How YOU Can ROCK Sustainable Flowers! …and why you’ll want to… (Watch Video)

Published 5 years agoon April 27, 2021

In this video you will learn the ONE easy, affordable, and impactful thing you can do as a consumer to lighten the environmental impact of your springtime, holiday (and everyday!!) flowers. Have you ever thought about the impact of buying flowers?!? I know I hadn’t given it much thought until today’s episode of The Imperfect Conservationist where I have a very enlightening chat with Sustainable Flower Farmer, Ben Cross, of Crosslands Flower Nursery in the UK. It was fascinating to learn more about Ben’s journey, how he’s giving back with his “British Flowers Rock” campaign, and why we all need to be talking more about flowers! My mind was blown with some of the details on this massive industry! Hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.

This is “The IMPERFECT Conservationist” Episode #5. In this series I take the big concepts of conservation and break them down into easily digestible bite-size pieces that can be applied to everyday busy life. In each video you will get your dose of “Conservation Empowerment” with EASY – AFFORDABLE – & IMPACTFUL conservation action that fits into your life. We can’t do it all, or do it perfectly but when it comes to being part of the solution, we can always do something! Be inspired, inspire others, do something good.
