    I'm absolutely feeling with you!!! And I understand you so well!!! So many flowerfarmers experienced that this year, changing weather conditions and resulting increased pest pressure ... a cocktail out of devils kitchen in terms of flower (or veggie) production. The experience that no one has time when you desperately need help is also well known 😢 Don't be sad, you're not alone!! And you are brave and go on and you share it with us, so that we also don't feel alone with these same problems! Thank you for this!! I think you will find a solution and its also a new experience and adventure in your life, don't forget that. You just can get into problematic situations if you try something, and would you like to live a life without adventure and trying out new things? I wouldn't like to ;) And: my farm is about 10 minutes away from where I live at the moment, because I have to renovate the old buildings. Its very difficult not to live there, because you never can use some free minutes for working in the fields. I think that makes it much more difficult for me and probably also for you. I could imagine, thats why you need workers to help you. But its not easy to afford those helping hands, thats clear. I'm curious about the solution you were talking about! I wish you the very best and hope, that everything turns well for you!! 🤗🌻🌼

    Thank you for sharing your struggles. I'm sorry it's not as you had hoped this year. I think you should move your farm to N Carolina- find land there. It must be hard not being able to be at the field. Nobody will take care of your farm like you would. I look forward to what's ahead for you, and am wishing you only the best!

      Thank you! We had planned on going back to NY in the summers to be with family. For now we will try to make it work, but its a struggle

      Yes, I am so happy I did a succession planting of the zinnias about 75 feet. They are still looking ok for now
