I loved reading this interview with Cel. She has created a very versatile business out of her love and knowledge of flowers. You both inspire me. I always thought flower growers were large scale operations. Cel does it on an acre. Fantastic!

So glad you featured Cel in this series. She is our inspiration, our teacher, our mentor and our friend. We were so lucky to happen upon her when we moved from the U.S. to Suffolk in the U.K. We took her beginning flower farmer course and she gave us the tools to make our dream a reality. The next step was our Floret Flower Farm course and we are off to the races. We have taken advantage of Cel’s one on one Zoom consultations. I would struggle to find a more knowledgeable, competent, kind person to learn from. Thank you for shining a well deserved spotlight on this amazing flower farmer.

I really loved reading this interview-thank you Erin & Cel. I'm currently gathering my material/stuff together & will start my seedlings in July to go in-ground in early September since our Spring starts during that time in Zimbabwe. I haven't driven in 7years & I worry about starting to drive after a long break since our farm is 45km away from town where there is our customer base. I'll have to master courage & start driving otherwise I'll have to incur a cost of using our neighbor who has a truck during the 1st months. I'm thinking of being in the garden from 6am to 6pm-I'm tempted but at 55 I wonder-thank you so much for a lot of information to work with-

Good morning, I would love to hear the interview rather than read it. The enthusiasm in the voice is very motivating. That is why I follow Erin and her seminars.
