Contribute to Sustainability with the Republic of Succulents!

 

  • Save Water:  Succulents are drought-tolerant plants, which means they require very little water, saving this precious resource.

  • Reuse & Reduce: The Republic of Succulents aims to find the containers for our plants at thrift stores, vintage shops or through “upcycling” (repurposing containers that would otherwise be trashed) = this act reduces our carbon footprint by reusing vs. buying new.

  • Support Local Charities: Instead of purchasing containers at a store, where the item is likely made in China (with all the social and environmental impacts of importing), finding items at a local thrift store means making a donation to a charity and supporting various social causes. Donating to Out of the Closet Thrift Stores benefits the AIDS Healthcare Foundation, and buying from Goodwill supports their job training and educational programs.

  • Made in LA:  The Republic of Succulents is a small operation that aims to source plants and containers from local vendors in the Los Angeles area. Supporting us means you are supporting a small business, what we stand for, and the local businesses we work with.


You can feel good about purchasing succulent arrangements for yourself or as gifts from the Republic of Succulents!

Sustainability creates and maintains the conditions under which humans and nature can exist in productive harmony, that permit fulfilling the social, economic and other requirements of present and future generations.
