(This week Sun Valley Group's Flower Talk features a guest post by Sales Assist extraordinaire, Robin Baker.)
Last week, I got to trade in my office wear for boots and head out to the mountains to visit our Willow Creek farm. Lucky for me, I was given a tour by our head grower, Tim Crockenberg, who oversees all of the operations for our Arcata and Willow Creek farms. During our drive to Willow Creek, I had a hard time keeping notes because I was so awed by the gorgeous landscapes that unfolded before us at each new turn. Our conversations went something like this:
“So, Tim, how long does it take for the Ilex to be ready to pick?”
“Well, each plant…”
“Whoa, that’s pretty! Wow, look at the river! Oh, is that an eagle?! Oh, sorry, you were saying?”
