Massive Flower Harvest Heading To Market | And BLUE SUNFLOWERS?!?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ส.ค. 2021
- When the world gives you flower, you make bouquets. For this weeks farmers market, we are using food coloring to attempt to make rainbow sunflowers, that we assume, will sell quickly at the farmers market. We also have a bounty of zinnias, snapdragons, cosmos, and dahlias to build bouquets with. For veggies, all the usuals are there, carrots, beets, zucchini, cucmbers, and tomatoes. The forest fire smoke is an issue this week, and it is slowing us down, plus traffic at the market will be down. Regardless, our $1000 market sales goal remains, we must make the money necessary to keep the lights on at the farm, so smoke or shine, we need to get to that farmers market to sell our bouquets and veggies.

Haha. I loved the ending. Glad you sold over a $1000. I promise to do my part and support a local farmer.
That $30 bouquet is amazing! Absolutely beautiful and full of value!
Sunflowers are beautiful naturally, don’t like the dyed ones at all!
Van Gough bouquets are stunning.
Take good care 😘
😂 Ian’s disclaimer at the end make me chuckle. As usual, gorgeous bouquets again this week Serena!
Hope the smoke clears up this week. It’s CRAZY, we were getting wildfire smoke from the west coast all the way over here in VT about a week ago. 😳
I came down to comment the same on the disclaimer! I Live in central vt and got pictures of how smoky it was..
I'm trying to start flower farm and wish I could be as successful as Serena
It is such a shame your vegetables don’t sell as well as flowers. I can’t imagine anything better than home-grown freshly picked produce, even if it means a separate trip to farmers market as oppose to getting all your food shopping at a supermarket in one go.
Wouldn’t it be great if local supermarkets also had a section and sold your produce not only supporting local community but also bringing best food available to people.
I'm guessing there are less flower vendors at the market then their are fresh food vendors. It's not that vegies don't sell, its just that there are many other vegie farmers at the market. Customers split their purchases amongst all of them.
Though the dyed sunflowers was an interesting experiment, please just use the natural colored flowers. No need to improve on nature’s beautiful rainbow of colors. People buying at farmers’ markets are looking for the “natural” instead of the “artificial.” Kudos to you, though, for always being willing to try something different just to test the marketability. .
Dang that is a 60 dollar bouquet here. Lovely!!
The humor is pure gold in this one 😂
I can’t wait until we move up there and I’m able to buy your beautiful and unique bouquets 💐 and your veggies!!!
Your terms and conditions at the end killed me :-D
That ending was hilarious Ian! I laughed so hard I scared my dog!
Liya’s bouquet was so good! Little florist in the making!
Yes, that's what I said. Way to go little one.
I would love to see a video of just making bouquets. I find it fascinating how you build them. Thank you
That closing had me laughing hysterically! Great video and congratulations on continuing to grow your farm and business!
I love seeing the cats!🐱 That 30.00 bouquet is gorgeous. The sunflowers are beautiful! All your flowers are beautiful!! You two are so hard working. You deserve every penny you make plus some!!
I can’t get over your flowers, they are absolutely beautiful! Your hard work deserves great rewards! Best to you 🌸🐝🌿🌺😊
You could do "ready to cook" packs of veggies, like tomatoes and an onion and some garlic and basil like for pasta, or ready to cook Bolognese sauce ( carrots. celeriac, tomatoes and basil), you could also use all the leftover leaves from the basil you clean for the bouquets and make pesto, people love freshly made pesto.
I think you are amazing.
Maybe they could do a CSA and the employee could make deliveries. Great ideas 💚
Great ending! haha. I think its clever but also really sums up the core of what you guys do and why you do it. I would add a "support your local farmer's market" message in every vlog. It really drives your message home. Great work.. and the footage of the flowers... absolutely gorgeous.
Awesome ending offer and disclaimer - well done Ian.
I have to be honest. I'm not crazy about the dyed sunflowers. They looked unnatural. I love everything else:)
Your farm is absolutely beautiful. You two have grown by leaps and bounds! You work so hard! God bless you all.
Awesome that even such a slow smoky market was a $1200 one!
I laughed so hard at Ian's disclaimer at the end
I have watched this show about 12 times already can't get enough of the flowers but although I love the flowers please don't stop growing veggies
Your flower farm is amazing! So many beautiful colors and variety! Great job!
How about doing an edible bouquet? basil,mint, cherry tomatoesonthe stem , celery sticks with leaves, etc..
That would be such a nice thing to bring to a party ! Snack and beauty at the same time !!!
I'm sure its a lot of work editing, but I LOVE the longer videos!!
Your efforts are REMARKABLE. We buy as much as possible from our farmers market (we are 12 miles north of NYC, along the Hudson River) and know the labor is huge. Your flower bouquets are FANTASTIC!
As a kid I thought it was fun to dye flowers that way, but I really prefer the natural colors of flowers. Those white sunflowers are beautiful just as hey are. I have seen a lot of dyed ones in the grocery stores, especially orchids.
Yeah I agree. A couple years ago spray painted mini-cacti were popular at Home Depot. I haven’t seen them for the past couple seasons though. Perhaps not that popular?!
You guys are so funny! I was cracking up at the end. I love growing veggies and flowers, but the flowers bring me more joy. Keep up the great work! Love you guys!
Oh the Bo basket was gorgeous, you could sell a million, I think the cats are living their best lives with you xx Congratulations on another fantastic market :)
I’m still laughing over that ending! Hysterical! Thanks for another fun video!
Glad you made the $1000 goal despite all the obstacles! The farm stand will be really exciting once it’s done!
Loved the ending comments! The bouquets were amazingly lovely this week. I do agree with your customers on the dyed sunflowers. Flowers are so naturally beautiful that dying can’t improve them. Sure hope the smoke situation gets better. Thanks for another great video.
The bouquets are gorgeous! I could watch you making them all day long Serena, you have a natural talent for it. It helps that you have such an incredible selection of flowers to choose from!
The carrots always look delicious on the stall. They always catch my eye.
Well, I liked the blue dyed sunflowers, but the sign off at the end had me in stitches! 🤣🤣🤣
You are never lazy Serena. U 2 are such hard workers
Congratulations! This has been the most colorful flower video yet! All the flowers are beautiful! Sorry about the smoke! Love the cats 🐈 too!
That ending was hilarious and I love watching Serina put a bouquet together. Thanks guys. I hope the fires settle for you soon. xo
That disclaimer at the end was hilarious and the dyed sunflowers look EPIC. Also the farm cats need their own channel 😍
Those flowers are out of this world gorgeous! Love them so much! 😍
Those blue white sunflowers look awesome!
My 8 year old daughter loves you, the cats, and your videos! Hello from Texas! Keep up the great work!
Love those Van Gogh bouquets! So glad you guys had a great market in spite of the smoke, such a bummer that it’s been so bad. Ian’s disclaimer at the end was brilliant, you guys are hilarious 🤣
I absolutely LOVE your bouquets Serena and oh man Ian at the end I was dying laughing. You guys are so funny and fun to watch! Congrats on 3rd best market even though the (literally) stinky smoke! Excited I am commenting on your video, also!
I have soooo much fun watching you put beautiful bouquets together and harvesting your bounty. Thanks for sharing with us!
Thanks for that chuckle at the end. 🤣 bouquets were beautiful. You guys have put a ton of work in.. Nice to see it paying off for you!
I’m in love with the Snap Dragons! Leah did a great job! If we lived near y’all, I’d get y’all to do both my kids wedding flowers!!!
The cool shed idea is great. Can't wait to see it up and running. It's definitely a good way to sell your abundant produce.
Love the flowers. Wish I could get some for myself. Love to see things in your farm that I can't grow myself.
Ending was hilarious.. your videos are getting entertaining by the week.
Love to you all ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I thoroughly enjoyed this format! Keep it up! Entertaining and engaging. I’ve been following for a little over a year and have watch you grow your business and farm. I have no doubt you will be successful by year 5.
so sorry to hear about Grandpa. I always enjoy your episodes with him in them. You can see how much he enjoys doing things with you and the mutual love is so evident. Take the time you need. praying for you
Flowers are like my favorite thing ever. This video and channel makes me so happy!
so glad you have comments back. Have you grown merigolds? this year, i planted them heirloom variety and they are amazing . Up to 3 feet tall, loaded with blooms and have a very long vase life. Will be planting tons more the next year
Those colorful sunflowers look so beautiful!
so many beautiful flowers
Gorgeous produce, makes my mouth water. Gorgeous flowers, all of them make my heart soar. All of it brings me joy at your successful growing. I pray for a great rain, gentle and long enough to completely extinguish that fire. Great work guys.
That is pretty amazing that you went over 1200 on a slow smoke filled day. you guys got it made if you keep adding all avenues of sales and stay consistent.
All those flowers look so gorgeous!!! I love watching you guys. Maybe it can be a good idea to make "edible" bouquets too! You have a lot of plants that are edible and people can just feed them to the chickens when bouquet is through with its life....
Love these long videos!! Serena making bouquets is so much fun always gives me inspiration for making my own!!
Love the odder looking flower arrangements. It's possible the your veggie sales at home will be better because your customers don't have to carry bags as they look around. They can just load up.
Those are beautiful. Your customers are getting a very good deal for the price. You are very talented. You and your husband work really hard. Your children are very sweet and are great to entertain themselves while you work. God Bless!
You work so hard and you have such a beautiful stand! You are the true role models to follow. I wish people like you would appear more on Tv and in media, in general.
The Zinnias are just absolutely GORGEOUS! :)
Congratulations on the harvest! Best wishes on your roadside store and your health!
You guys are the best!
Love our local farmers! 🍎🍊🐤🥬🐟🍇
You guys make awesome videos! Love Ian's disclaimer at the end. You're also excellent farmers! I hope by now you've experienced some relief from the smoke. You have a lot of people "pulling for you" - I hope many of them are local! Can't wait to see your finished farm stand - exciting!
😆 love Ian's side effects at the end!
Watching from Iloilo, Philippines. It seems that your not getting tired of your work. I really admire your teamwork guys. Love your farm very much. God bless you both.
Man, I love veggies. So sad to see nobody buy them.
I was thinking the same!
Best video yet! Loved the music and the bouquet making. 💐
I had to watch this video twice it was so beautiful! I just love hearing your kids little voices, they're so precious. One day you'll be watching them take over 💜 that was a great hall for the smoky market!
Love your future florist and your yawning Iounging predators.
Wow! What a beautiful farm you have! Flowers… Veggies… Cats… Amazing!
Thanks
You grow such beautiful flowers. They look so perfect. Great job! ❤
That sound of the straw flowers is amazing 👏 😍 Love your videos by the way ❤
The ending was so funny. 😂😁😆 love the flowers, so colorful... Loved the sunflowers, my favorite.
Ya'll had an amazing flower, and vegetable growth this year. I know everybody got started late, but wow. Those greenhouses really do help. I need one. God Bless. Deborah.
🤣🤣🤣Classic ending, Beautiful...
Flower bouquets this year are “on point.”
Wow! The flowers look absolutely gorgeous!
So beautiful flowers I liked the arrangements
Stunning sunflowers 🌻🌻🌻
Congrats on breaking the 1K! Can't wait to see the finished roadside stand!
The ending made my morning 🤣😭🤣🤭. Hey hey, from NYC👋
Oh man - that message/disclaimer at the end was perfect 🤣
A veg stand down the road from me has the back wall sectioned off as a cool space sort of like the dairy section at the supermarket. It works well. I can send pictures if interested
i think the orange/red dye looks really nice. Very natural. Gives the sunflowers a little bit of mystery. I can't believe people don't want the carrot tops. I love the tops for chimichurri or stock.
Omg you guys, if I lived in your beck I’d the woods I’d be buying those $30-$40 bouquets every other day! Such gorgeous and generous bouquets for the money! You are such hard workers - I wish you all the success in the world! 🥰🥰👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
Here's hoping the smoke clears soon. Your garden is the most colorful and prolifically amazing bunch of hard work imaginable. Many thanks to you and yours, please stay healthy and happy.
I noticed one section of our lettuce went to seed last week, and I was thinking of using it as greenery in bouquets…good to know I can!! 😊👍
The flowers were amazing again .
The sunflowers are crazy, nice.
Always enjoy how fun and creative your videos are! 🥳😁
Congrats on the 1200$ !! Cant wait to see the roadside stand up and running !
Liya might be lazy in everyday chores, but she's a little genius when it comes to arranging! Too bad those sunflowers didn't hold up well, those bouquets were stunning! Ian might share the consequences of his recommendation together with anyone who doesn't understand his sense of humor:)))
Oh my goodness...you are a funny guy 🤣
I hope your Roadside stand is a success 👌
Those double sunflowers look like ginormous dandelions.
your paper flowers are soooooo ASMR!!!!
