Morning, glories! If you’re planning to love on the mamas this year, buying from a local florist and your local sustainable farmers is a radically sweeter way to do it than the greenwashed 1-800bouqsfreshfromwhatfarmguys, promise. Hooray! This is your annual unsolicited reminder that the American Mother’s Day Proclamation of 1870 called on all mothers to unite against all war and violence. Shopping small from florists who buy from sustainable local growers is a small but mighty charge against environmental and labor violence, and you get prettier flowers in her hands, too. Our online shop is live for Tuesday-Friday (May 3-6) and Sunday May 8 local deliveries to DC • MD • VA 🌈the more you know🌈 We have an unbelievably supportive community and we're stepping off this insta-soapbox with gratitude for every order and the farmers who get us the best of the best local bounty. - Maria & Whit
