Flower Farming

Today we harvested a third of the Safari Sunsets. It was a very hot day but that did not stop Nader....


It may be a little hard to tell but the plants in the foreground were just harvested and the plants in the background still need to be harvested. There is still a lot of work ahead.


Nader has set up a little production area in the shade of the avocado tree. Here you can see him creating field bunches to drop off to the flower brokers.


We loaded up the Subaru wagon with our bounty of foliage. Tomorrow these Safari Sunsets will be at market, how exciting. I never would have guessed it, but some how some way along our path we became flower farmers. Life is an adventure !
