The dark side of floristry

The dark side of floristry

Pretty flowers often carry a dark side. Pesticides that harm the florists who handle them. Thousands of travel miles for the many imported flowers. And floral foam that leaks microplastics into water, and therefore waterways. Guest: Rita Feldmann, founder and education director of the Australian-based Sustainable Floristry Network Producer: Ann Arnold
