HOW I GOT STARTED.........

I was admiring arrangements at a reception party for a friend. I decided to ask the hotel staff what actually happens to the flowers. Do they move them to the lobby for the enjoyment of the guests? I was told "oh no, we don't keep them." So an idea was born; why not ask to take the flowers back to my shop, redesign them & give them back to the community. Why not? Who wouldn't like fresh flowers especially in a nursing home dining room or a local school lobby. That's how "Vermont recycles Flowers "got started. With the generosity of flower donations and a little talent from Chappell's Florist designers and local volunteers, we are sharing flowers, still full of life, with members of our community who will really enjoy them. recycleflowers@yahoo.com

WAY BETTER chappell's florist MOTHERS DAY FLOWERS arranged than box shipped

I have been asked the difference between flowers shipped in a box from a flower production warehouse and our custom designs. Even though Vermont recycles Flowers does send out cut flowers in boxes, I receive much nicer appreciation notes from the folks who get flowers designed in a vase. I also believe that the "Buy local " is not only good for the community but good for the environment. Mother's day flowers will be designed and delivered by our volunteers throughout the week.
