Conservation Notes

The Summer '08 issue of the GCA Conservation Watch had an article on environmentally responsible flower production, certified by Veriflora, with a list of vendors. If you are uncertain about the flowers you have purchased for arrangements, take precautions, especially if you make your arrangements where you also prepare food. They may leave harmful pesticide or fungicide residue. You can read the article at www.gcamerica.org , members only, click Conservation Watch and the Summer '08 issue.
