Krewe des Fleurs, in celebration of its 10th anniversary, is delighted to host the Fleural Affair to benefit Grounds Krewe.
Grounds Krewe is a 501c3 nonprofit organization with a mission to promote waste prevention, recycling, and sustainable products at New Orleans special events. With an eye on keeping all of the fun and revelry of New Orleans’ signature events, but a lot less of the single-use plastic and waste that will end up in landfills, Grounds Krewe achieves its mission in a variety of ways. It maintains a catalogue of sustainable throws for krewes to consider, it manages parade and events recycling stations, and it engages its own roving krewe of cyclists that circulate along parade routes to collect cans and recyclable materials.
Krewe des Fleurs was born out of a desire to make Mardi Gras a much more environmentally friendly experience by passing out only sustainable throws and never using single-use plastic.
We are proud to support such an important mission for our beloved city and culture! Join KdF for our Fleural Affair and enjoy delicious food, signature drinks, festive music and an enticing silent auction, all in the most picturesque setting of Paradigm Gardens.
Early Bird tickets ($85) available January 11 through 31. General admission tickets will be available starting February 1 ($100).
