I appreciate your willingness to share the details of your process more than you can imagine 😊

Enjoying my first CSA bouquet !! Thanks Nicole 😀. The daffodils are beautiful and look gorgeous. The pickup at Rome YMCA was easy and the receptionist friendly. Your hard hard work is surely producing great results!!

What a great place for pickup at your YMCA! As a board member of our local Y, that is a wonderful community showcase!

They are being so generous! I am so grateful! There is also a local veggie CSA that they partner with for pickup during the same time frame. :)

Be sure to put your names on the containers! They look like useful containers for lots of things and I can see them getting “repurposed”

What a delightful video! I really enjoyed it!

Totally off topic. Ordered a David Austin Crown Princess Margareta rose plant for my grandfather's memorial garden. Looking forward to seeing your roses later this season. 😊 I have a bouquet of azaleas in my kitchen now. My first bloomers every year.

Oh!!Nicole your a dressing very very beautiful

Haha! Crapseedia! You keep me chuckling. Thanks for that!

You are a joy to behold. It’s so much fun to watch you unpack anything!

Love your videos/channel, love seeing your process, so excited to see how your business is growing and thriving. Also! One tip that has helped me at fundraisers. When you get your new Johnnys transport buckets add a sticker to the bottom (or front) with your business info incase they forget who they belong to after people pick up their bouquets. When i organized fundraisers I started doing that so that’s venues would know that they belong to our org and not throw them away. 😊😊

Hey, so happy to see that you can buy proconas individually and not a pallet full. When we started 20 years ago, we got them free and had really tall cardboard collars to stack sunflowers in our big cube van. We could go 2 or 3 high and our van could carry a great dea of flowers to our farmers' market. They were great, could be wedged together tight. We had only 1 spill due to a pothole. We still use them today. Holds lots of flowers and greens. Put your name on them, they have a tendency to walk away, especially new ones.😊

I’ve really been enjoying your videos of late Nicole🌸 I’m in Australia and my friend has a flower farm here and it has really piqued my interest and love for flowers again. Have a wonderful day xx Cathi xx 😘

I’m so glad you found a product that makes your life a little easier.

Supplies!!! I love supplises!! Those boxes are going to be so helpful! Cheers to your first Bouquets!! 🥰

Yay!! The first of many CSA bouquet making videos! Your videos are such a ray of sunshine. Thank you. ❤️🌈 ☀️ ❤️

Nicole thank you for being you! Your flowers make me so happy 😊and you are so entertaining! Love your channel.

I find the whole process so interesting, I always wondered how the flowers in stores were literally “suspended in time” until you bring them home. Didn’t know that product existed lol. Thanks 😊

I love seeing your videos

Hi Nicole! Beautiful daffodils bouquets! To transport vases I use 2 liter soda bottle crates that have 8 compartments. They hold vases perfectly and they’re free!

Hey Nicole I love how GOD is Blessing you on your flower farm you have inspired me so much I can not express to you thank you so much on your ides you have passed along to me and others you have given me a ton of ideas Thank ya girl 😇

🥰💐 Bring on the flowers of 2022! 🎉

You are having a good time. That's great. Makes me happy.

LOVE that Replete daff.!! Wow first bouquets going out...how excited you must be! I will need to look into my YMCA....Or perhaps my local health food store. I've sold bouquets there..but I stayed on the porch with them and it just took too much time from my little farm. I don't know if they would want to be responsible to oversee them or not. You've got some very nice, helpful people around there!

So exciting to see your first bouquets of the season, Nicole. Those transport containers are super. Great start for this season.

Wow, those boxes are game changers. I've been wondering about their functionality. Thanks! Beautiful daffs, or antique narcissus, as Erin B. calls them!

Girl, my brown thumb and I don't grow a thing but I love nothing more than watching your videos and was GIDDY to see a bouquet being made! Side note, your shirt is adorbs today!

First sighting in a non-hoodie in months! Thanks 💐

for car transporting i bought several bus tubs from a restaurant supply store( they were less than 5$) they are light weight, waterproof and i easily tape the vases into the corners so they wont tip over. built in handles too

Aw, my last Johnny's order had my seeds wrapped like that too. It made them feel so precious.

Have a blessed beginning of the new bouquet season:))))

Soo exciting for you

Omg so exciting. Those are great containers, it always seems tricky to transport fresh flowers. And I love how the paper makes it look. Those are gorgeous so excited the whole season.

Thank you so much for sharing your supplies!!

Beautiful!

A free bouquet is more than enough payment to simply hand smiling people flowers and check them off a list. I love that flower transport system! The amount of space is maximized with square/rect. boxes as opposed to round buckets which leave unused gaps between them. I would think they would be great to maximize display space at farmer's markets too.

Thank you so much Nicole absolutely love your videos you're so inspiring😇

Wow these are great for transport! 😄

So beautiful! So exciting about the stem length. When I worked in a flower shop we never gave flower food for daffodils in bouquets or buckets. I was told they don’t need it but never investigated it further.

I got one of the bags and I have already used mine. I love it! ❤️

I wonder if those new delivery containers would work for Ian and Serina! They had mentioned trying to figure out how to make all the flowers fit to get them to market and that they couldn’t put them in the back due to wind. But maybe since these have covers that protect the flowers they may work!

I love your top!!

Wow. Love those stacking containers for transport of flowers. NEat idea from Johnny’s. So excited for your flower season !! Suggest you get a chair with rolling wheels to do this part of your bouquet making to avoid all that bending and save your back. Watching you makes me so nervous you have to constantly be bending at the waist..... to plant, harvest and to make bouquets. Also, you get little stick-on wheels on Amazon which you can attach to the bottom of your transport containers so it is easier to load and unload them in your car. Just a thought. Good luck with the new season!!

I grew these in my front garden this year (or something very very similar!). When they first opened up, the contrast between the orange and the pale yellow was amazing! They’re done for this year, hoping for better displays in the future.

To see your dreams come to fruition makes me so excited and happy for you!

Drop off locations...game changer. I recall you used to deliver your CSAs and/or arrange pickup; so much time saved now! PS: I ordered my Lisianthus seeds last summer, just to make sure they didn't sell out...will do the same this year.

Love watching you. You are an encouragement to me. How large did you say your Kraft paper square are?

My first year growing crespedia….the seeds germinated easily so we will see what happens😍😋

🌻🌻🌻Any news on the Serendipity Sunflower Seeds from Steve? 🌻🌻🌻🌻

First, yes I bought the Dickies tool belt because of you and its the best purchase ever!! Second.: I've been eyeing those transportation buckets for a year now. They're just so expensive. Please let us know how you still feel about them at the end of the season! Great video as always!

"I need some hummus." 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Gorgeous daffodils!!! Sharing a thought: could you cut your craft paper in half, to be more economical…?!!

Nice thought! I've tried that before, it just doesn't look right to me. I prefer the fullness of the folded paper, but I'm sure someone might like to cut theirs.

BEAUTIFUL! I will be in upstate this summer, where is the farmers market you refer to?

All a great me to you So much more it's fantastic Nicole 🐶🐭🐘🐢🐹🐰🐇🌻🌼🌱⚘🌷🌲🌵🇺🇸🇺🇸😋😣💏💏💪✌your bouquet (s)very very good

I love my dickies belt. Best advice ever. Thank you Nicole. I especially like my dickie has a spot for my favorite dibble, dibber, dribbler, dibbler, whatever they call it. Again thank you.

That carrier looks terrific. I was just wondering if you were going to put water in them....do they stay in water at the ymca ?? In a bucket

Hi Nicole! I'm attempting to start my first large cut flower garden and I'm using a weed barrier with holes burnt in it. I realized (much too late) that the garden area wasn't tilled enough and I'm afraid my seeds are just going to wash under the fabric when I water or when it rains... I am putting some soil in each hole that I'm planting in to see if that helps but I'm wondering if you have ever had this issue and if so, how did you try to stop that from happening? Thanks, Nicole R (:

Does anyone remember the peony that sunflower Steve recommended to her as his favorite? Moon peony? Couldn’t find it looking through videos so not sure

Hello!! How's the flowers you planted in front of your house? If I remember they were tulips! Can you show us!! My tulips didn't come up like 2 and there short lol .It had to be the weather 😩

For the craft paper (or any other packaging/shipping supplies), if you can find them by any other maker than Uline, I’d *highly * recommend it. The owner of Uline is… oof. Not great.

Is there a place I can look up and see if there if there is anyone around me that offers a csa?

How much do you charge for your bunch of 12 daffodils?
