From Veggies to Full-Time Flowers: Why Ditching Vegetables was Worth It (TRFP 55)

In this episode, Alec welcomes back farmer Jen from Pig & Leaf Farm for round two to dig deep into the flower side of their farming operation...including the big decision to phase out vegetables entirely and go all-in on flowers! She breaks down a practical veg-to-flower ratio, which crops are beginner-friendly versus which ones are advanced, and how to choose market streams between farmers markets, wholesale, and weddings.
