#267: Flower Farming, Will You Make It?

Field and Garden with Lisa Mason Ziegler ·

2023/12/05

I find that many people struggle and quit flower farming before they really get started. Why do they quit? Not because they aren’t trying, but because “they don’t know, what they don't know” and get burned out doing the wrong stuff. How do you learn the right stuff? Networking with those who are ahead of you in their business journey.

#263: Dried Flowers, Added Value

Field and Garden with Lisa Mason Ziegler ·

2023/11/07

Dried Flowers = Added Value! My goal was to always sell it all fresh, but, there are always leftovers, right? Why not hang them to air dry and sell them as added-value products? Dried flowers are back in vogue and an excellent cash crop to sell alongside your fresh fall flowers and those holiday-blooming bulb containers. Dried straight bunches, bouquets, and wreaths are all in demand. MentionsAbout Ellen Frost: ⁠Instagram⁠, ⁠YouTube ⁠Florist School Online: Growing Your Business with Local Flower
