We have had a good week planting strawberries. It is hard to believe that the first planing will be ready to ship the end of next week. Our sunflower field is just starting to bloom and is beautiful. ... See MoreSee Less

Looks awesome😊

What part of America are the first Strawberry Plants going? We are so wet in the south. We may end up planting a rice variety of Strawberry if there is such a thing. Ha ha ha.

Noticed the 🌻 the other day!

U Cut? Or selling to florist? Or harvesting for the seeds? Everything looks great. A few busy weeks ahead.
