Sustainable floristry with Florage Tasmania at Hobart Library

Come and make a beautiful and unique environmentally conscious bouquet and learn how Tom and Andre are making a difference in the floristry industry.

Florage are Tasmania's eco-friendly Designer’s Choice florist, with stores in Hobart and Launceston. Florage don’t use plastic cellophane, synthetic ribbons or any unnatural elements in their designs. They conscientiously avoid using green Floral Foam, due to its potential health and environmental impacts. Instead, they choose recycled and compostable materials.

They specialise in working with local Tasmanian flower growers for blooms when seasonably available. 'Grown not Flown' is always their preference
