2013 was an amazing year. With our energy high, we planned out 2014. The plan called for expansion. Expansion of flower crops and market sales.
We added more flower beds, hoop houses and increased the variety of flowers grown, added another farmers market, and worked a couple of wedding shows. To win, you have to show up for the game.
We sold bouquets – label/barcode to Whole Foods. It’s an amazing feeling to walk into the store expecting to see full containers of packaged and labeled of my bouquets and seeing empty containers.
We even worked in a few weddings, some DIY brides and deliveries to florists.
The workload was incredible. Each plant, each seed planted by hand. Weeding, all done by hand. Harvesting and bouquet making, each stem touched 2+ times. Flowers here, flowers there, flowers everywhere!
With the closing of 2014, our energy depleted, we realized it’s time to make some changes for 2015.
