Thoughtful Alchemy: Sustainable Floral Design, Shane Connolly & Co

As we tend toward summer’s end, with end-of-summer and fall events and celebrations perhaps in mind, maybe even winter events in the planning, we turn this week to floristry and how and where it intersects with sustainability – and as our guest today shares, with thoughtfulness. British floral designer Shane Connolly is well-known for his world-class floristry and floral design – gracing several weddings within the British Royal Family as well as the recent coronation of King Charles. While his floral design is known for this high-profile event, Shane is also known as one of the preeminent ambassadors for a more sustainable, organic, local, seasonal, and low-waste floral design and floral supply industry. In advance of the Slow Flowers Society welcoming Shane for three days of workshops and events in Seattle, WA Sept 29th – October 1st, Shane joins Cultivating Place this week to share more. Enjoy! Cultivating Place now has a donate button! We thank you so much for listening over the years and we hope you'll support Cultivating Place. We can't thank you enough for making it possible for this young program to grow even more of these types of conversations. The show is available as a podcast on SoundCloud, iTunes, Google Podcast, and Stitcher. To read more and for many more photos please visit www.cultivatingplace.com.
