    Flower petals are never wasted, worms love eating them. I pick them up from a flower farmer 1x a week. I sort and put all petals into a tote and then go from tote to tote sprinkling them in each. I ramble on too much, good video love the questions getting answered. Thanks.

    Hello Agusta, Thank you for your comment! I think Jeanie would be more than happy to accommodate if she had a handicapped person apply. Thanks!
