We are a group of floral designers @ Chappell's florist who create new floral bouquets with recycled "Event" flowers. Event flowers are fresh flowers that are enjoyed for a short time at weddings, Hotel Conventions, business or party function and then normally discarded. We deliver these new arrangements to Nursing homes and Assisted Living Facilities, Vermont Respite House weekly, Ronald McDonald House, Hope Lodge, Schools, Churches, libraries and Nonprofit organizations.
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
