In reply to Ginger Song. Good suggestion, Ginger. I will look into that. Thanks for your feedback. Sorry you missed out on the dahlias--they sold out fast!

I just went outside today with my husband to measure the growing field. He was as excited as I was to read all of inspirational blogs!

Thank you for not being afraid to share your secrets with everyone!

I’m trying to sort out how to harvest seeds to save for next year. Is this doable for most commercially bought seeds at this point in time?

I just received my order on Saturday! So excited to get them planted. I had read in your earlier blog post on how you applied for grants to get your greenhouse? Just wondering if you had any advice on where to get started . Thanks!

I struggle with pricing. It is challenging if you don’t know wholesale floral prices and you want to sell to florist (intimidating + you work so hard and want a fair price)
It would be nice to collaborate across the US on standard pricing for spacific regions. Thanks!

In reply to Ti.

I thought of 2 very big questions that I wanted to know from you, and think others would as well.
You grow organically, but how do you take 2 acres of grass and these nasty perennial weeds and annuals that have spread their seed, like crabgrass, wild onions… and will soon smother the property??? It is impossible with this size to dig out and keep weeds and grass from growing here… esp when working full time else where. Please share how you made that happen???
And secondly, you mention repeatedly using flower feed/preservative for flowers in water after cut… but what organic way or one are you using please???
thanks so much!

I know this is a leap….but would you consider my selling some of your seeds. In my new little homestead store in central Kansas? I am a huge fan of yours and have been growing veggies and flowers as a hobby. And now I want to help others do more!
