5 mins in he’s tearful. That’s me. I do it all the time. I’ve never known anyone else like this. I tear up talking to people all the time, especially over good things like babies and puppies and happy stories. I am terrible for it. Anyhow this is a great farm and video. Thanks so much for this.
I enjoyed this tour so much! Your friend is so organized and competent. Never apologize for showing emotions, it shows what a big and caring heart you have! So nice to see!
Beautiful, fabulous video. You both radiate competency with a large measure of humility and willingness to allow the earth to be your primary teacher. Love and emotion on your sleeve is a rare thing to see and it is so heartwarming❤
The biggest difference for me is you don’t have to wash flowers! I love growing veggies, but we’re switching to do more flowers. They make us so much more money in less bed space. However like she said if you don’t harvest at the right time the flowers become useless and go to seed so fast for some varieties. Neither my wife or live making bouquets, so we’re going to hire someone to take that on next year
One thing I will say though- although the washing of some veggies can be very time consuming, some flowers can be very time consuming to harvest. They you have to strip all the leaves off, & some have thin stems so you have to take off one at a time. Then you have to put them one at a time in the bucket because the stems get tangled if you try to harvest & keep flowers in your hand & harvest more. Just something to think about.
My French is horrible thank you for speaking English ensuring all of the information that you share I hope that someday food will not have to travel more than 100 miles or whatever number we decide
This is THE video, congratulations to both........ flying to Quebec soon, buying the book right now! Bravissimi, aussi en francais vous etes inspiration et passion, merci, salut de l'italie
Hi Margaret the book is only in french currently. It will likely be translated in the future but for now that is TBD! That being said, perhaps it's your chance to learn french! 😜
Although I can understand French to a limited degree, I would like to buy Chloe’s book. I bought your Winter Market Gardener’s book before it was released, in French, to help with getting a better understanding of the language too.
such a great tour and explanation! Lisianthus grows native in our texas prairies and doesn't have a scent naturally :) but I agree about biennials. they're a pain because they take so long but they bloom in the gap season (here in texas, it falls on mother's day, oof!)
very nice! I admire people who can understand and speak multiple languages. The wholesale greenhouse flower grower that I worked for as a kid instilled a lifelong love of plants in me. JM, my wife laughs at me when I get emotional about unusual things. :)
Je suis bien contente d’être tombée sur ce vidéo! J’aime l’idée d’une ferme de fleurs et si j’avais du temps pour partir un autre projet dans ma vie, ce serait assurément les fleurs, plus que des légumes. Faire une visite virtuelle est donc vraiment plaisant. Je vais essayer de trouver le livre et l’acheter mais je ne suis pas certaine qu’il soit déja en vente? Je vous salue de Sainte-Christine, tout près de Valcourt! J’irai faire un tour de moto dans votre coin par curiosité. J’imagine que la ferme n’est pas ouverte au public mais bon :) une belle destination! :)
Hello, I was wondering where could I find a farm in France that harvests a lot of Calendula officinalis (pot marigold)? I am trying to find a location to film on for commercial purposes. Thank you
Hi there are beneficial insects in the garden that kill pests so if you know what pest you have that is destroying your Dahlia flowers, buy beneficial insects that kill and eat them and/or interplant the Dahlia with plants that these beneficial insects like! That way you don't have to protect your flowers and avoid using toxic sprays - Just a tip x
Too bad Chloé's website is not in English nor her book yet. My loss I really enjoyed this I grow a lot of flowers and people always ask to buy them so I should learn a little more from Chloe. I look forward to her book coming out in English.
j'ai vraiment de la misère à comprendre ton idée jean martin..moi je suis francophone et même si je parle anglais et je le comprends j'ai toujours de la misère pareil a savoir pourquoi tu parles en anglais je sais c,est pas de mes affaires mais cela me fait de la peine pareil. j'apprécie tes leçons pareil bravo.
this might sound ridiculous but to be honest with you the way that you were going to attract people to the floral industry is with sent it's in our nature to gravitate towards things that bring us pleasure and our senses deliver that but if you have flowers that were genetically modified in order for them to have a longer lifespan though they might be beautiful they are incomplete I worked in a grocery store in the floral department and when I first arrived there none of the flowers had any smell except for the occasional potted plant that came through that you could smell within 20 feet of that department it brought people to the department people didn't normally look at the flowers or even know that they were there because they were so busy running through the store getting the things that they needed it wasn't calling their attention so no matter how beautiful the flowers are without their signature which is scent they're not that precious You've heard the saying take time to stop And smell The roses It didn't say take time to stop and look at the roses There's a reason And ask people we know that love is very important To fall in love with everything and how can you fall in love with something just because it's pretty you're falling in love with the essence of that thing whether it be a flower a plant a human and animal a tree water the rocks You understand? Life is love all things that are living but has a special essence it is their soul expression My recommendation is not to worry about productivity and chasing the money but to develop a business that encompasses all of those things it should be for the love of So when you purchase your flowers or your seeds make sure that they are heirloom or organic That they have not been genetically modified and that they contain all of their special characteristics including their precious essential oils which are released drawing your audience near I have to tell you I adore him he is perfect Someone who allows himself to be emotional and to feel his feelings and that comes through on his interview and it's really beautiful very refreshing That's what makes him so special and we all have that so do the flowers let's not forget

You're referred to as an empathe. It's a good thing and a gift!❤

Wow thank you so much for the beautiful comment! It really means a lot to us to get feedback like this ❤️
I appreciate you both for speaking your second language,e English. Thanks
Great video, informative & inspirational. I hope book comes out in English soon! Would like to purchase a few! Keep up the great (work/life style) !

Awesome!! Floramama is living my dreams! Great content. Flowers forever!!!🍺
Love the authenticity in this interview, thank you!

@@HaleysHappyHomestead ❤

Yes, would love to know if this ever comes out in English!
Thanks JM for sharing this beautiful ladies flower dream farm.
Thank you for doing this in English….much appreciated❤
My French is horrible thank you for speaking English ensuring all of the information that you share I hope that someday food will not have to travel more than 100 miles or whatever number we decide
Thanks JM and Chloé. Very inspirational even for the home gardeners to get some ideas for a side hustle
thank you so much Claudia that means a lot! ❤️
Your expertise shines through in the detailed information you've provided. Grateful for your commitment to fostering a deeper understanding.
Much love JM! Many flowers are edible and can add a nice color. We try to plant a flower at the ends of pathways and beds!
Fantastic video of a beautiful place.
This is THE video, congratulations to both........ flying to Quebec soon, buying the book right now! Bravissimi, aussi en francais vous etes inspiration et passion, merci, salut de l'italie
Is her book going to be available in English?
Hi @tamrahawkes3170 It's a pleasure to meet you here. How are you doing?
Thanks again for the content. You continue to inspire alot of us.
thank you Louis! 💚
J’aimerais tellement entendre ce partage en français! Bravo pour ce travail de pionnière!
Flower farming is not only easier than produce farming but it is far more lucrative.
Not sure if it’s easier , they have to pick every day . They have no weeds anywhere. Amazing. But the money is so much better
Will the book also ne published in English, and where will it be available?
more flowers! flowers make the world go round.
J'avais une vieille image de la floriculture mais cet aménagement comme du maraîchage me donne super envie !!
Is Chloe's book offered in English?
Same question here!

Hello, I was wondering where could I find a farm in France that harvests a lot of Calendula officinalis (pot marigold)? I am trying to find a location to film on for commercial purposes. Thank you
bravo la ferme est superbe et dans les mains d'une belle personne, tous mes voeux d'avenir !
This is super impressive. I could never do this.
Well you could, everyone can. Many years ago everyone did. That’s how they olives.
Great vid! I learned so much! I like that MUSIC; what is it???
Merci bien ♥
Chloé can you please share the brand and model of your lisianthus cold frame (greenhouse). Thank you!!
Very nice to see this THANK
I would love to order a book but I don’t not speak French; is there an English version?
A translation is in the works 😉

I'm Flemish and I see your point. I would prefer French with English (or Dutch 😀) subtitles.
Apart from the language thing I'm very glad I discovered this channel, it's super inspiring 🤩
I assume it is because there is a larger audience that speaks english.
Is the book also translated to English?
Hi Claudia! How are you doing?
Сколка труда вложено ❤
Can we get the book in English?
Not at the moment, but the translation will come eventually!
Chloe you can put perrenial flowers in that extra space...I imagine that might save you time and not need as many employees? 🤔
Wow....❤
this might sound ridiculous but to be honest with you the way that you were going to attract people to the floral industry is with sent it's in our nature to gravitate towards things that bring us pleasure and our senses deliver that but if you have flowers that were genetically modified in order for them to have a longer lifespan though they might be beautiful they are incomplete
I worked in a grocery store in the floral department and when I first arrived there none of the flowers had any smell except for the occasional potted plant that came through that you could smell within 20 feet of that department
it brought people to the department people didn't normally look at the flowers or even know that they were there because they were so busy running through the store getting the things that they needed it wasn't calling their attention so no matter how beautiful the flowers are without their signature which is scent
they're not that precious
You've heard the saying take time to stop
And smell
The roses
It didn't say take time to stop and look at the roses
There's a reason
And ask people we know that love is very important
To fall in love with everything and how can you fall in love with something just because it's pretty you're falling in love with the essence of that thing whether it be a flower a plant a human and animal a tree water the rocks
You understand?
Life is love all things that are living but has a special essence it is their soul expression
My recommendation is not to worry about productivity and chasing the money but to develop a business that encompasses all of those things it should be for the love of
So when you purchase your flowers or your seeds make sure that they are heirloom or organic
That they have not been genetically modified and that they contain all of their special characteristics including their precious essential oils which are released drawing your audience near
I have to tell you I adore him he is perfect
Someone who allows himself to be emotional and to feel his feelings and that comes through on his interview and it's really beautiful very refreshing
That's what makes him so special and we all have that so do the flowers let's not forget
we produce greenhouse cover plastic PE film PO film from China factory and export to America
