Regenerative Flower Farming with Jennie Love of Love 'n Fresh Flowers

Author: Scott Shepherd, Host and Flower Educator March 5, 2024 Duration: 1:14:44

I am pleased to welcome back Jennie Love of Love'n Fresh Flowers to The Flower Podcast. Jennie continues to inspire us with her commitment to flower farming and her obvious love of flowers. Her work is a testament to her dedication to no-till farming, supporting local growers, and her approach, not only nurtures the soil and local ecosystems with nature but also brings the unique beauty of each season through her flowers.

Today we had a lot of fun discussing the importance of No-Till practices, not spraying anything but various inputs, creating habitats for wildlife to help with pests, and so much more. Join me as we catch up with Jennie and learn how her passion for natural practices and community support is shaping a greener future for the floral industry right in the heart of Philadelphia.
