Spring has arrived, and the world can't help but erupt with color: fruit trees are blossoming, shrubs are sporting new, tender buds, and flowers are brightening up fields, yards, and even our farm compost pile. Yes, spring is in full effect.
We grow flowers year round, and without a doubt, spring is the best time to be a flower farmer. We no longer need to "trick" our crops into thinking it is springtime. Now, the sun shines, and the flowers act accordingly.
We call this the "Spring Effect," though it could just as easily be called the "Flower Explosion." The timing is perfect as Mother's Day is just a month away, and in the meantime, we are fully enjoying the buzz of springtime energy around the farm.
