April 11, 2023 #233: Ask A Florist with Ellen Frost of Local Color Flowers
Today’s episode features a takeover of our popular weekly live Q&A session on Instagram, normally called Ask a Flower Farmer. In this episode we instead did an Ask a Florist session with guest host Ellen Frost of Local Color Flowers in Baltimore, MD. Ellen is not a flower farmer, but a designer who creates exclusively with flowers and foliage purchased from local growers. She is also one of our course instructors here at The Gardener’s Workshop. In this Q&A Ellen fielded many questions from flower farmers about the details of selling to florists, which is also the topic of her on-demand mini-workshop, link below.

March 28, 2023 #231: Battle of My Head vs. My Heart
I question everything this time of the season just before the farm bursts into bloom. Will it survive? What is eating that? Why this year? I must remind myself to step back and allow my mind to overrule my impulsive heart's reaction!

Hope this brings you relief,
Lisa

February 28, 2023 #227: The Greatest Overwhelm of All: Success
It is so easy to feel overwhelmed! I know because it is my natural reaction to a challenge or problem. I tend to tackle problems head-on, and then realize how I need to slow down for the many speed bumps so that I can get over them to reach the goal. Overwhelming.
Looking in the rearview mirror, I see that not only have I come a long way, but that overwhelm was a necessary piece for me to succeed. I have wounds and scars, but they are what have paved the way for my business. Take heart friends, overwhelm is the pathway to success!
Stay tuned until the end for a special note from listener & student Jessica!
