But i love using seasonal blooms for events; they really enhance the vibe. Any suggestions for sourcing them sustainably? :cherry_blossom:.

Using seasonal blooms is a game changer! I always try to connect with local farms; they often have exactly what you need and it’s way fresher. For larger events, sourcing from places like @LocalHarvest can really help with sustainable options.

I totally get the appeal of local farms, but don’t forget about farmer’s markets — they can be gold mines for unique blooms! Also, have you thought about reaching out to florists who specialize in sustainability? It’s like finding a hidden gem in a thrift store.
