Gift Guide: Top 10 Brooklyn Mother’s Day Presents
Flower CSA from Brooklyn Grange
Flowers as a Mother’s Day present are almost cliché at this point, aren’t they? You don’t want to get your mother some dopey old bouquet that will just wither and die a few days after you give it to her, do you? Of course not. Plus, it’s really terrible for the environment to get flowers that maybe were shipped to New York from somewhere far away, leaving a carbon foot print the size of Nebraska, all for a few measly stems. That said, flowers are still a gift that mothers always love. And you want to make your mother happy, right? Well, how about making her happy over and over and over again? Get your mother the gift of joining Brooklyn Grange’s Flower CSA. Then, every week from June 26-Oct 23, she can pick up a twenty-stem bundle of flowers grown on Brooklyn Grange’s rooftop farm. That’s really local. And, because of how local the flowers are, they’ll last much longer than the kinds that are flown in from California or some other ridiculous place.
