Best Burlington florist idea - recycle vases back into the community

We are grateful in this time of Thanksgiving for all the donations of vases and baskets for our Vermont recycle flowers program. I love to see all the happy faces of folks bringing in boxes of vases, or even just one vase from their home for donation. So far, we have always received enough  vases for our bouquets. Thank you to the local community!

Shelburne Farms wedding flowers Chappells florist Vermont recycles in Burlington

I are pleased to share that Erin, event coordinator at Shelburne Farms Shelburne vermont has asked us to recycle wedding flowers after the events. Previously the flowers were composted, but we both felt a much better choice was to redesign and deliver to nursing homes and non profit organizations in the local area. This week fresh and gorgeous creamy white hydrangeas, stock, roses, and other garden favorites are now in homes and businesses for all to enjoy. Thank you to our recycle flower volunteers who redesign and deliver! Thank you also to the local community who generously donate vases to the program.
