Oursin Fleurs

This isn’t your typical flower shop—and that’s the point. Oursin Fleurs is part of a new wave of florists trying to rebuild the industry from the soil up. Located on Ontario Street East, they make elegant, contemporary arrangements using locally grown, in-season flowers, all wrapped in recyclable materials. There’s a zero-waste ethos behind everything they do, but it’s not a gimmick—it’s just how they work. The bouquets change weekly, and their subscription service means your home can stay in sync with the seasons without ever setting foot in a supermarket floral aisle. Bonus: they also carry a curated lineup of home goods and host occasional workshops for anyone looking to get their hands a little dirty. Service can vary, depending on how busy it is, but the results—fresh or dried—tend to speak for themselves. A thoughtful, low-impact option for people who want their flowers to feel as good as they look.
