Flowers are an important part of the life and worship of our church. We are blessed to have a team of creative, committed and talented flower arrangers, who add so much to the beauty and holiness of St Michael’s.
Matthew 6:29
"And yet I say unto you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these."
Sustainable Church Flowers
We have been practicing sustainable floristry for some time now, but we recently passed a Parochial Church Council resolution formalising our position as a Sustainable Church Flower (SCF) church.
​
We have committed ourselves to, whenever possible, using locally grown flowers and foliage:
​
-
grown without the use of harmful pesticides and herbicides
-
packaged without the use of unnecessary plastics
-
grown by people who are paid a liveable wage and are justly treated
-
never bleached or dyed
-
non-invasive species
-
never arranged in floral foam.
-
​
We invite those that use our church for events to read and follow our events policy.
