How I got started.......


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

Vermont Weddings

We are in the summer wedding season event, and we are gladly accepting gently used wedding flowers, bouquets, ceremony and reception flowers. Many Vermont weddings have guests from outside the local area and are unable to take flowers with them when the leave the celebration. The bride's family can bring the flowers to us for redesign or we will pick them up. The flowers will receive a second life and bring joy to many at our local nursing homes. These flowers can last up to a week because of their freshness. Thank you for considering our program!
