About Petals for Hope
Petals for Hope strives to make a positive impact on individuals in less than desirable circumstances while sustainably supporting the environment by reducing waste. Since our conception in 2018 we have successfully repurposed and composted thousands of blooms.
We work directly with industry professionals, retailers and individuals to pickup flowers after events and weddings to repurpose them. This not only brings joy to those who could use a smile, but also reduces landfill waste. All blooms and greenery that are unfit for use are composted.
