Tips on Starting a Backyard Cut Flower Farm from Scratch 💐 ✨

In today's video I'm discussing all of the things I wish I'd done differently in starting my backyard cut flower farm. I've done a few other videos on lessons I've learnt flower farming and essentials to start a flower farm, however I wanted to sit down and chat about tangible actions that you can take now to start a flower farm to be successful. If I were to start again, these are the things I'd do (and am doing now to continue running the business). I've linked some extra videos here if you'd like to continue watching about our little backyard cut flower farm.

Welcome to my channel, The Nature Patch where I like to share all things gardening, cooking, environmental science and flower farming in my Australian bushland backyard in south coast NSW. My name is Robyn, an environmental scientist, and flower farmer. I have recently completed my PhD in understanding how people's wellbeing and their connection to nature is impacted by land use change but now I'm taking a break from research to pursue a dream of owning a flower farm. I've always loved gardening and nature and lately have been interested in growing my own organic food! On this channel you'll find videos relating to garden tours, 'how to' videos, composting, soil health and how to start a flower farm. I try to upload twice a week and I hope you enjoy!! 🤎 Filmed and edited on Yuin country. I acknowledge and pay respects to Traditional Owners of the land past, present and emerging. Always was, always will be Aboriginal land. ____________________________________________________ You can contact me at (business inquires only): [email protected] Thank you so much for your support.
