This month on Down The Garden Path, we're talking all about growing! We all like to grow plants in many different places besides in the ground. So for the month of March, we are discussing what it takes to get growing indoors in different places. From starting seeds indoors to raised beds and containers, the possibilities are endless! In this week's episode, we’re joined by Janet Tuenschel, owner of Country Cut Flowers, as we talk about growing cut flowers.
Janet Tuenschel has a little flower farm, just outside Newmarket, called Country Cut Flowers. Her farm is heading into its third year of opening to the public for cut-your-own flower days, workshops and small weddings. The rolling hills at Country Cut Flowers have approximately 1,000 peonies, 6,000 tulips and an acre of mixed perennials and annuals. Janet left the advertising and fundraising worlds to get her hands in the dirt, first with a small gardening business, then with the flower farm.
She answers some of our questions:
Country Cut Flowers offers a cut-your-own service at their farm. To manage this endeavour tickets need to be purchased ahead of time.
