At Old Ford Florist, we believe that a love for flowers should go hand-in-hand with a love for the planet.

From the way we source our blooms to the journey they take to arrive at your doorstep, we’re committed to greener choices every step of the way.
Eco-Friendly Packaging for a Cleaner Tomorrow
Single-use plastics and unnecessary packaging are problems that many industries face—but not at Old Ford Florist. Our signature eco packaging is made from fully biodegradable or recycled materials, right down to the twine and labels. By intentionally reducing plastic waste and opting for compostable wraps, recycled papers, and reusable ribbons, we make sure your flowers arrive beautifully presented and entirely guilt-free. Customers have shared their appreciation for packaging that looks great, preserves flower freshness, and leaves a much lighter trace on the environment.
Local Sourcing Supports Community and Environment
We prioritise sourcing flowers locally whenever possible. By working with growers within and around Old Ford, our eco-friendly flowers are freshly picked and travel short distances, ensuring minimal carbon footprint. This approach not only keeps our arrangements vibrant and long-lasting but also strengthens local growers and the wider Old Ford community. Our customers value receiving blooms that reflect the best of our region, season after season.
Choosing Fairtrade Flowers for Global Impact
For exotic and out-of-season flowers not available locally, we partner with certified Fairtrade farms. This ensures that workers are paid fairly and labour conditions meet the highest standards, all while maintaining environmental stewardship abroad. By choosing Fairtrade flowers, our customers help fund better working conditions, fair wages, and environmental protections in flower-growing communities around the globe. Every Old Ford Florist bouquet that includes Fairtrade flowers carries with it a story of global positive impact.
