My Flower Farming Journey. Reclaiming Joy by Growing Cut Flowers in the Landscape🌸
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ม.ค. 2021
- My flower farming journey here at @NorthlawnFlowerFarm has evolved over the years. Although I used to grow cut flowers as row crops, there was just something missing...the joy that a garden brings. Today I'm sharing with you how I used to grow cut flowers, other jobs in the industry I've had (or turned down), and why I landed on growing cut flowers in the landscape as you see me doing today. I hope this video will encourage you to find your own journey, and embrace and be thankful for what you have. It's easy to get discouraged when you see 10 acres of beautiful flowers at their peak, and think how will I ever accomplish (or afford) that on my property. This is where I feel social media does us a disservice. We all have different journey's, different incomes, different roles in life to play, and that's ok, that's GOOD! But we can all grow cut flowers. We just have to find the way that's best for us.

If I could give this video 1000 thumbs up, I would! I love how you’re speaking to what you value and your experience. I think it’s easy to look at other people and think their way is the only way. It doesn’t take into account what is best for our family, our time, or our budget. I would love to know more about the other business that you run to see how you balance your time. I really appreciate your tangents and how vulnerable you are. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Danielle , your expression of passion, dedication and commitment not only applies to gardening, but to life’s purpose! Thanks for sharing! Stay safe ! ❤️🇨🇦
You are my favorite garden TH-camr by far. You have a normal yard, you are on a budget, and you don’t pretend to have a perfect garden going. Thank you for the step by step tutorials, I need this kind of help. Don’t be afraid to repeat content. I would love to go with you week by week of your planning and gardening.
I love hearing people’s stories of how they are where they are today! It’s obvious that gardening is in your blood and you do a fabulous job at it. Thank you so much for sharing your journey.🌻🌷💐
Danielle, I VERY much enjoyed listening to the story of your journey to where you currently ARE in your life journey and all of the lived experiences that made that journey what it has been for you. As an Episcopal/Anglican priest of nearly 25 years, I am truly impressed with your openness to allowing the "glimpses" into your faith journey that you provided in this account. In our world today, too few are either willing or able to just STOP and LISTEN to the ways God might be trying to guide them through the difficulties of our life experiences. As you put it SO well, just because God is ever with us and guiding us, doesn't mean the "road" of our life journey will not be bumpy from time to time, or such that we find ourselves having to occasionally dodge those "pot-holes" of life that do show up. Your message made it clear, that our Lord HAS been EVER present with you in your journey, and that through your own WITNESS TO THAT PRESENCE (realized or not!! lol), you have held THAT divine presence up for others to (hopefully) receive, embrace and imitate! I pray God's RICHEST blessings on you, your family (would love to see any pics of how much the kids undoubtedly look like their Mom! lol), and have NO DOUBTS that as God has guided and prospered you in your efforts to serve in God's Name thus far...your farm, your work and...YES, your MINISTRY...will only continue to prosper in the future!! If there is ever a time, I can further support you in the spiritual part of your journey, please do not hesitate to reach out to me on FB. John+
Really appreciate your sharing, giving God the glory for His creation of flowers. I grew up on a family farm and I have to dig in the dirt. I am 70 and still garden o an acre. I love sharing and teaching younger people the love of gardening. God bless.
What a wonderful testimony of God's grace and direction to where you are today. I resonate with so many of your thoughts and feelings. I'm so thankful to have found your channel and the vast information, beauty, and encouragement found here. I've always sprinkled flowers throughout my vegetable gardens so now I am ready to dive into cut flower gardening. While I would love to pay property taxes with income from selling bouquets, I know the beauty may prevent me from selling all. Gardens have amazing and beautiful opportunities to see God's truths, and I dont want to miss out! Please keep sharing your love of beauty and flowers! I enjoy every single moment!!
Thank you for sharing your story! It’s great to get to know you a little better and where you’ve come from. ☺️
I found this really helpful as a very small flower farmer who wants to operate on a very small scale. Doing what I do well and being true to what is right for me....I love that you shared this it was just what I needed in my 3rd year of flower farming.
I have five acres and I still don’t want a big business production. My garden is mine, a sacred space just for me. To think and enjoy and connect with the earth! What a fantastic story you have.
You are such a blessing to me and I am so grateful to God that He put it on your heart to have this channel. I found your channel few months ago but had never seen this one until today. It just popped up and began playing and I have listened/watched it once and backed it up to see it a second time. You are so encouraging and spoke about not comparing ourselves to others and that is so very true. Thank you so much for sharing and encouraging us!
What a wonderful story and journey!
Thank you for mentioning the spiritual side of finding your path. So important for all of us. Well done. Inspiring.
You just helped me win a property war with my guy. Lol. Explaining that my wonderful, ever expanding, flower beds will simply cover the yearly property taxes.
I'm so glad you were brave and made this video! I always enjoy your videos, but this one was special. Peoples' journeys are fascinating, and your passion makes me think that I can do it too. Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing your journey. What a wonderful story. I, too, got my love of flowers from my grandmother. She grew flowers simply for her own enjoyment, and that is what I do as well. I was what I refer to as a “weekend gardener” while I raised my family and dedicated 30 years of my life to teaching, which is what God called on me to do. I retired 2 years ago, and now I have time to work in my flower beds and experience the beauty that you say brings tears to your eyes. I am so glad that you found the courage to share your journey with us. Thank you again!
I am totally on board with the idea of having the cut flowers be a part of the landscape. I view my .75 acre as a canvas for flower art and design. :-)
Thank you for sharing your story.
Like you, I love the garden, but especially to give Joy and Glory to the Lord.
Recently we were able to harvest all the greenery from our garden to decorate the churches for 3 different weddings.
Thank you for all your advice and tips throughout the year. Looking forward to more flower gardening with your videos.
I have lived in our home for 44 years. The trees have grown up and now I have mostly shade gardens. I have always wanted to grow cut flowers. If I was 20, well maybe 30 years younger, I would definitely try cut flower farming. After viewing your video, I'm going to plant cut flowers in my landscape where there is more sun. My goal is to grow cut flowers for my own enjoyment and to give away to others who might need a bit of cut flower joy. Thank you for inspiring me and I know just what you mean by the joy of working in the soil and growing things. I think the Lord has blessed you with a calling. Thank you for sharing your journey.
You are wise beyond your years, Im so appreciate how enlightened you are.
Thank you Danielle. Your journey has really struck a heart cord for me. You have given so much of a learning curve and what really stands out is that you garden in a way that is good for our environment while you do your best to please a happy customer. You put so much love and care into what you are doing.
I live in Devon, UK. I rent an allotment where I grow some veg and lots of flowers. I love selling surplus veg and my flowers from an honesty box at the top of my small road. I also have a full time job as as an Operating Department Practitioner in a hospital in Devon. I just want to say thank you. I found your you tube channel and have been binge watching all day. You have taught me so much about planning, harvesting and caring for our beautiful flowers which we want to share with our community while still enjoying the pleasure of having a garden. Your work and your story is beautiful and realistic. I think you should present this to Gardeners World in the UK. I am sure Monty Don would appreciate your story. Once again, Thank you!
Thank you Danielle. I feel like I learn so much from your videos. This one really hit home with me. I recognize myself in many of your comments. Your style of having your cut flower garden in your landscape speaks to me. Your sincerity is much appreciated.
Thank you for sharing your story and your faith! Finding or choosing joy is so important! The world needs more of it and the One that provides it. Blessings!
Thank you for sharing your story. It's hard to be vulnerable in this way, but your willingness to do so makes a difference. Your story has given me hope to keep going on my gardening journey.
This was such a fantastic story! It really does look different for everyone! I’ve learned SO much about so many types of flowers through your channel and can’t wait to grow and sell my own this year for the first time because of it! Thank you for being SO encouraging! 💓
What a wonderful story I’m so glad you finally got to the end of your journey where you’re happy 😊 I have a large long garden where I’m battling with it but I can see the end result eventually 😁 like you say it’s all trail and error and most importantly supporting each other 👩🏻🌾
This is why you are one of my favorite gardeners! Thank you for sharing your story. Happy gardening!
Love watching you my gardening friend!
Thank you for sharing the story of your journey with us. I am only a backyard gardener, but I find your videos on flower farming to be applicable to me as well. You taught me how to make floral arrangements using the bounty of my yard. When I give them to family and friends, they always bring a smile. Also, I am going to try growing snap dragons this year too.
I loved your honesty and your story. I’ve gardened for over 50 years I now have hit a wall so I really understand your story.
You are a darling and I so appreciate hearing of your journey. The successes and failures. It’s wonderful to know you have the Lord to guide you. I had a five acre farm for 23 years and we grew Dahlias for tubers and cutflowers. We live on a peninsula in BC, Canada. Our garden was open to the public Aug through September. We had a celebration area where we had weddings etc called Celebration Gardens. I did all the wedding flowers, etc. Our farm was called Dahlias Galore. We sold 9 yrs ago and I’m enjoying retired on a beautiful 1/2 acre. I’m happy to find you and follow you on your journey. Praying the Lord blesses you and your family. Thankyou for sharing your heart!
Thank you so much for sharing this dear flower friend. It sounds as if I (and many of us) could learn so much for your experience and expertise. I am honored to have you here. Are you on Instagram? I would love to learn and grow from you.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful story! May God richly bless your hard work and faithfulness!
You are so right Danielle - a garden must bring joy...at that might look different for each of us. but no matter what it must first put a smile to our face and joy in our heart. Thank-you for sharing. Take care!
Thank you so much for sharing your story. When I discovered your channel last month, I was so drawn in. We have veggie gardens here and for the last 6 years we worked on getting that routine down. Now I’m happy to turn to the flower garden. My vision is to have enough flowers to take bouquets to friends birthdays and dinner invites, and more beauty in the house. I started that a bit this year with asters (didn’t realize how much I would love them!) and the sweet peas grew well (finally:) so that was a good start. Your layout of gardens is lovely, and that you use all kinds of foliage, I would never thought of, has been most helpful. I didn’t think feverfew was a vase flower until you showed me, it’s wonderful! And grows all over my yard, no help from me. Next year I see a lot more colour, texture and shapes. Thank you again for your lessons and inspiration 🎉 Cheers! Wendy
Wise advise for any walk of life! Your sincerity is so genuine. Thanks for your honesty.
You're a sweet soul, thank you for sharing! your grandmother would be so proud
I can't tell you how much that means to me
Yes, the first thing i noticed about your garden when you were planting was your rich soil😊the previous owner definitely sold you a gold mine in soil and you have truly been a good steward with your land. Your journey is very inspirational and thanks for sharing😊
Proud of you for having the courage to "put it out there." Your sincerity and your love for gardening is an encouragement and inspiration. Keep it up.
Thank you for being who you are and all that you share with an open heart. You are a blessing!
I love listening to your gardening journey. I hope one day I am as passionate as you are as I am still learning. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing your journey with growing flowers. I always find there is a lot of wisdom to be found in another person's experiences. Your gardens are super inspirational -- for me, it would be to cut flowers for bouquets in the house. Never be sorry that you have empty spaces where plants were cut and sold because it is a business, you've just made it beautiful :)
Thank you for sharing your journey with us. You are an inspiration and have such a beautiful soul that shines through in each video. I think many of us found this video helpful and can relate in one way or another. I recently found you and I love how you incorporated cut flowers into your landscape. It's just so beautiful! It's what I'd love to do here on our land. Having a full cut flower farm isn't realistic for many of us. Whether it be land, money or in my case, physically not being able to keep up with a full farm. I live on a few acres of land in a home we built a few years ago. I love to garden but due to a neck injury years ago it's much harder for me now. This will be my first year growing cut flowers in my gardens. I've learned a lot from you and resources you've shared. I find your content relatable. I have followed many gardeners on you tube and it honestly has made me unhappy with the way my garden looks. I can't find the variety and quality of plants they often use here in my area. Not to mention how expensive it is to garden on that scale. Which led me to you and wanting to grow from seed and incorporate that into my garden. I hope one day to have gardens as beautiful as yours and if I can make a little extra money off of my hard work and land that would be great too 😊
That's a great story! And I love how you found what was right for you. With so many people getting into flower farming these days and taking the same courses there can be a tendency to just repeat what you have been taught instead of figuring out the fine nuances for each unique situation and farmer. I also appreciate that you have a small farm with a small monetary goal. In business there can be a mindset to expand fast and make the most possible amounts of money, hire staff etc. I was happy to hear your goal of paying the taxes on your property while enjoying flower growing. You gave your stamp of approval to those that have smaller goals in mind and validated that they are still worth doing. Thank you for sharing your journey and knowledge with us through your channel. BLESSINGS-Kate
You are beautiful inside and out. Love your story. Thank you for being brave and sharing.
I’m thankful for your farm journey. Very encouraging. You are very gentle but also very strong personality. God gave you amazing talent to make people happy.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR JOURNEY❤ I FOUND IT TO BE HELPFUL IN SO MANY WAYS. I THINK YOUR HEART IS AS LOVELY AS THE FLOWERS YOU GROW. 😊
Thank you for sharing your journey. Hearing it is very inspiring. I’m really glad i found your channel. 😊
Excellent video, it is meaningful to hear not only the stories of success, but the journey it took to get to the spot where you feel peaceful, joyful - and profitable! Serious flower farming is a business and it means taking care of the actual business end plus what you customer want and buy. Look forward to more of your videos.
Thank you so much for this video! I enjoyed your story and love your channel. I have learned so much. I garden in my yard and am incorporating many more cut flowers this year grown from seed. Please keep making your wonderful videos for us to watch and learn. I find them priceless, appreciate you and thank you!
You helped me with my dilemma. We live on 10 acres in a semi suburban neighborhood. We built a barn for our horses that quickly moved into a successful wedding venue business. I am Retiring from teaching nursing this year and I want to start a SMALL cut flower side business that would pair well with our wedding venue. My husband and I love to garden but we do not have any great financial aspirations regarding this new venture. But how do I do this....row gardening would not fit with the venue business......BUT landscape flowering would be perfect! What bride wouldn’t like to walk down meandering paths of beautiful flowers! And talk about picture back drops....Holy Moly! Thank you so much!
Thank you for this video.. I loved hearing about how you arrived where you are now. When we share our successes, we reap admiration and respect, but when we share our struggles, we connect with each other.
This was really insightful and inspiring. While gardening and cut flowers are hobbies for me, I’ve felt the struggle in an entirely different industry of balancing passion with career while still finding joy. It’s hard! I’m happy for you that you’ve achieved that balance and very grateful that you are willing to share your knowledge in order to lift others up, because your videos have taught me a lot. Thank you! 🌱💜
Thank you so much! Still think your garden looks amazing! It gives me courage to try and see what works for me.
Thank you so much for sharing your inspiring story. This give me an inspiration to continue my garden journey. Two years ago I grew zinnias on our small property and had them in a long row of flower bed and was so beautiful even only those flowers. Now I'm so ready to explore other flowers and will start propagating them early and enjoy them longer.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart! What a beautiful, real and heartfelt explanation. My story is very similar to yours. We now have had our own flower farm that we bought on the south coast of South Africa and started 5 months ago, and your advice and experience has already helped me enormously! Thank you for sharing your vulnerability and strength!
Lovely video. I completely agree with your approach to flower farming. I too want to grow flowers as part of a landscape. At heart, I'm a gardener, not a farmer, so flower farming needs to be incorporated into my love of gardening. So nice to find a kindred spirit in that regard. Thank you for sharing your journey and perspectives.
Thank you so much for taking a risk and making this video. Between your goal to pay the tax on the land with the flowers to wanting to keep it a garden but a profitable one, there were so many great bits of knowledge. One of your best videos yet!
I appreciate you putting this together. Sharing your journey and many important experiences and the realizations of the balance that is needed in life. Room for living, joy in what you love and not loosing your motivation ir wisdom when sacrificing so much. Balance in life is key to all the joyrney and your story was well presented. Theres so many struggles in growing things and so many variables and differences with each seed, each season and climate and many suprises and struggles along the way. Its overwhelming to phathom growing so many varieties of plants at the right time and co ditions. Im a liferime learner but i have trouble retaining and remembering when i need to recall so.much...and tak8ng the time to methodically create organized plan. I never give up a d push on but a simpler way to be sucessful with growing variety and being able to grow,them well and keep them healthy and fertiled correctly...oh my it makes,me,dizzy! But i love growing so much!
Thank you so much for sharing your journey, you are a kindred spirit. JOY, that just happens to be my word for the year. Every year I have a word that the Lord gives me and I intentionally make that a focal point of my life for just one year. With all that we have been through this past year I make the choice to look forward and to move forward with joy. I find it all around me, it just takes looking for it with an open heart. Right now it is joy in planning what seeds to start. Soon enough we will all be in our gardens again. Thank you for being you.
I love your words Melinda - and I love that you do a word of the year. Do you watch The Two Orchids? I noticed she does a word of the year also. I'm not sure what my word would be.....dirty...?
@@NorthlawnFlowerFarm the word would be ' Beauty' because that's what you bring or maybe 'Inspire' as that's what you do!
Thanks for sharing It is truly a blessing to follow your dream!!
Very nice to learn more about your start... all the best in your garden this year.
Flowers can make me have tears too when I grow flowers... 🌷
Gardening is a gift from GOD 🌻
❤️the channel
Your #1 fan from Pittsburgh
Thank you for sharing your journey. I find so much inspiration for my own garden from yours. We just moved from .31 acres to 5 acres, and while that seems like it would be freeing, 90% of the new property is wooded. Figuring out how to grow flowers and incorporate them into my landscape and not ruin this beautiful property in the process by working with nature instead of against it has been difficult but your channel has helped so much.
I am always thankful to see your name Lyla! 5 acres! You grow girl! Are you on Instagram? Would love to follow and support you.
@@NorthlawnFlowerFarm I am, it's @aisle.of.blooms
You're right. Sometimes I see things on the internet, & feel envy that I am not at that stage, or I don't have that amount of land, etc. but when I REALLY think about it, I'm am not only extremely blessed with what I have (especially with the background I came from!) But I'm totally content with what I have!
Thank you for having the courage to share your story. I'm so glad I found you this past summer; I have learned so much! Your garden has been a huge inspiration to me as it fits my style so well. I had never before considered selling my flowers, but as I have learned so much from you, and have developed my gardens and have seen the joy they bring to my neighbors, I am beginning to consider the possibility. As you've referenced in a video, (loosely quoted) I think I need to sell some flowers "so that I can buy more plants and flowers". I'm glad you have found your way back to joy in your garden. BTW your arrangements are BEAUTIFUL!
This video is wonderful. Thank you for the inspiration and encouragement. Thank you for sharing with us. God has gifted you 💐
What a great story. Thank you for sharing. I loved hearing your passion and joy about your flowers. God bless and have a great day,
This is probably one of my favorite videos from you ❤️. First let me say that $5000 from $50 makes you a business rockstar! I grow cut flowers in my borders and when I happened upon your channel, it was such a design inspiration. I loved hearing your journey. So glad you found your joy. 🌻
Thank you for sharing this all. It gave me a lot. I am just starting my flower gardening, with 5 children, one baby still, and I feel this is the time to start. This was my dream occupation as a little girl, that I forgot and became an English teacher but now I came back to it, in our garden which is very similar is size as yours. Your video gave me good feelings, and a sense of peace and patience. And a kind of kinsoulness thing. 🥰 we live in Europe, Hungary, so I need to see what is our zone like, too.
Danielle, I watched this video when it first came out years ago and loved it and for some reason it popped up on my feed again today and it's a cold, snowy day in northern California so I watched it again because I ALWAYS learn something from you and have missed seeing your videos lately (I hope everything is ok with you in your neck of the woods ❤️) and I loved it even more! You are so transparent and honest with us and make us feel ok about not having "the perfect garden". I have always loved my garden but lately feel like it's not good enough because it's nothing like the ones I see online or even fellow flower farming friends (or even yours) but you are right. I have to stop comparing myself and be happy with where I am today. It's where I'm supposed to be or I wouldn't be here. I'm so thankful for you sharing this with us. You are such a light and bright spot in the world and I thank you for putting yourself out there.
Looking at your journey and at your amazing garden it is obvious that you found your way in managing Northlawn Flower Farm with great knowledge and heartfelt approach. There is nothing bad in trial and error, especially in gardening, don´t you think? Seeing what you have achieved by now must make you very proud. To a joyful gardening year 2021. Stay safe, Hanni.
Awesome 💕 I love that you say about God giving us all these beautiful flowers. I feel that way. Gardening flowers heals my soul. I am so grateful to God for my love of flowers. 💕💕
Thank you for sharing your journey! It has given me food for thought.
Great video, so informative and a wonderful personal story. Joy, you are so right. Thank you.
I loved this video! I loved hearing your journey! And glad that you found your happiness!
Thanks for sharing your story. Such an encouragement for those of us who would like to start our own small business!
Love your story! My hobbies actually turned into selling the things I made. I felt broken, unfulfilled and no longer felt joy in what I did. I think we all need to step back and reevaluate our lives when we get to this point and decide how to move forward to finding that joy again. 💕
Thank you so much for sharing your story. Your garden is exactly what I want for mine. Now I just need to find the right property. Currently I’m in Arizona and I can’t plant anything lol but it hasn’t stopped me from buying seeds and dahlia tubers for next spring when I hope to be in Tennessee.
Thank you for sharing your journey to flower farming. I loved hearing how you have evolved into the kind of gardener that you want to be. And I especially love that you have made sure that your jobs are true to your gardening beliefs. Keep sharing your wonderful gardens. I’ve learned so much!
I really enjoyed listening to you this morning 😊
What a perfect video! I've felt so many of the same things. I love being in my garden and enjoying it. I don't want to lose that therapy and mental health boost aspect. Thank you so much for sharing!
You have a lovely story! Don’t feel bad about sharing it.
Thank you so much, Danielle. I appreciate you sharing your journey, & I learn so much from you. Gardening is such a joy for me, & like you said, there is so much to learn. The Lord does give us joy in flowers, & I do love to give my bouquets away. Maybe some day I will put a flower stand out by my road. It's a good dream anyway.
Thank you so much for sharing your journey thus far with us!
I think the most important message that you impart to us, is how we have the opportunity to create what is right for our particular journey, bringing us joy in the process. When we are happy, we are more likely to spread that joy and love to others, as we share the beauty of God's creations with each other! Thank you for your sweet spirit in this world, where people are becoming more confused and unhappy, not knowing where to find peace in their lives. You have brought more joy into my life, just being able to listen and watch your calm demeanor as you share your particular spot of beauty on this earth!
Do what you LOVE and the $$ WILL follow. Thank you so very much for sharing your journey. You are beautiful inside and out. And, thank you so much for sharing that you inquire of The Lord for light along the path. Be Blessed! xo
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
Thank you Danielle for sharing your journey. Your videos are always the ones I go to when I get on the computer. Can't wait to see what is next. God Bless
Your story has helped me so much. I started growing flowers this year to sell and it didn’t work out. We have had family crisis,pandemic and I hurt myself. I also was allowing online teaching make me feel pressured to do more and more. I don’t want this to consume me. I wanted it for a hobby that I could also make some money doing. I love to plant and have my hands in the dirt but I love other things also. You helped me to feel okay with the fact that I only want to be a hobby grower making some money. Many blessings to you 😀
I'm not a flower farmer but love your videos. They are informative for the home gardener.
This is awesome! Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your story.
I really enjoyed your story. I'm a stay at home mom of 2 boys or young men. They are 21 and 16. I've always loved growing flowers, but this past February I decided to grow a small scale cut flower garden. I read a book that said if you think you would like to flower farm try it on a small scale. As of right now, I'm growing seeds with my very first grow lights that I stoled from my son's shop temperally that is. I live in Georgia in zone 8a. I'm very excited about my new adventure. I have snapdragons about 4 weeks old growing under grow lights. Most of the flowers I would like to grow, like sunflowers and cosmos, I will direct seed. Thanks for sharing your story. I thought I would send a comment. Its nice to hear someone elses story about something your interested in.
Thank you for sharing your story and your journey. Your garden has been so inspiring and has brought me so much joy seeing it. ❤️
Wow hun why am I just seeing this video!! Danielle your so sweet and gorgeous. Your very lucky to have such beautiful souls teaching you how to!!! Your grandma number 1😊💚And now your a star teaching the I internet!!
Thank you for 'putting it out there' this was so generous of you, and you are helping so many of us with dreams who also have to think practically. Thank you, thank you!
Thank you for opening up your heart and soul for us. I admire your courage. More than being a wonderful gardener, you are a wonderful and amazing person! May the Lord bless you and your family on your journey!!
I so enjoyed hearing your story! Thank you for this and all videos! You and your videos are such a joy and inspiration. You might not ever know how much you are helping your followers. I soak up your information like a sponge. I listen/watch over and over and over.
I appreciate you sharing your story!! It was great learning more about you!!
Thanks so much Danielle for sharing your Story and Journey in Flowers and Gardening!! I enjoyed it so much...
You garden is stunningly beautiful.
You are so encouraging! You are truly living the dream! -prioritizing your own joy, ability, and family while finding a way to be profitable and serve your community. I don’t sell flowers but I love my little patch of garden that is usually a mess, (I think) needs rearranging, and could use a lot of help! But I’m learning! And it makes me so happy! Still sometimes I end the season feeling like I never did enough. Hearing other people’s story and PROCESS puts things in perspective of how far we’ve come and the joy in the DOING. Thanks for sharing!
I love your approach. It's helped me as a novice gardener be more confident. I want to harvest cut flowers but don't want to commit to rows of flowers crops. I only have a quarter acre, my kids need space, and I also want nice landscaping. I always wanted to marry the two (landscaping and cut flower harvesting) together but thought maybe that was wrong for some reason until I found your channel.
What a great story. Speaks a lot to your knowledge and humble nature. I love the way you are using your garden. It makes it so much more attainable for the suburban gardener.
