On the flower farm, flower harvest day is an important day for having a successful farmers market. But when the rain starts, everything falls apart! Will Ian and Serina still make it? And will there be flowers this week? Spoiler, they are in the thumbnail.

You're farm is huge! Is this a full time source of income, or a side job?
I can’t be the only person going back through all your videos now that the comments are on. Hopefully your back catalog is getting a ton of views because of it!
You are getting very close to 100,000 subs! The flowers are looking freaking amazing. Did that storm bring a break in the heat? I saw on the news there were fires in or very close to Kelowna…
Ian you are such a supportive husband. You two make a great team,you’re right she is pretty cool.
How are the fires there now? We have summer vacation in August and we'd love to come visit your matket/stand/farm! Stay safe darlings. Your flowers are beautiful and inspiring! ❤ Linda in Vancouver
PS do you follow 1818 farm? She produces dried flower bouquets, confetti and other products that she ships. A dried bouquet is 30 stems and sells for $39 USD plus shipping. If you don't know her already check out her YouTube and website. Very inspiring. She has a tutorial for making the dried bouquet that looks a lot like Floret Erin's fresh bouquet making recipe technique!
My wife and I really like the bluegrass you use as background music. Best of luck.
The flowers look so pretty. Especially love the all white bouquet!
What zone do you live in? Details about growing and planting techniques
Your cat looks like he eats at least 3 mice a day!
Love how you cut and catch with the zinnias. I do too lol.
You two are amazing!! Love the videos
Do you save your veg. rinsing water to water plants?
Best of luck to you. You deserve to sell out every weekend.
I just found you on YouTube. You grow beautiful vegetables and flowers and care for them beautifully. I would buy them if I lived near you. Thank you for sharing your life.
You are incredible
That was a very nice stall. I would have bought so much produce from you. Greetings from Liverpool, UK
I have just found your channel and I'm binge watching. I love your attitudes, you are both adorable. So heart warming ❤
Why don't you hire someone to help you with the Flower Market? They could duplicate your efforts and you might sell more than what you pay your hire. Also it seems that you are making a white bouquet and if I remember right they were the ones that didn't sell well. I do think that your bouquets would look better with some filler like your Cosmos.
Hi, Can you please let us know where can buy the seeds and name of the flowers.
Instead of snipping stem by stem on the cosmos, could you grab up a bundle in one hand, and then just cut it all of, like the top 18", it would give you an even dead head hedge at the end and much easier than stem by stem, youd have to pick out the flowers from the foliage of course, but might be quicker. Ive been a floral designer, florist, for more than 30 years. If I get to come back to this world in another life, I want to do what you do. I think it is just wonderful!! Good job guys!!!
My wish, if I may have one, would be for you to time lapse the market, people coming and looking and choosing their items. Picking out their special bouquets.. Their faces, Im sure there are lots of smiles. That would be fun to watch. Thanks guys!
Those white bouquets were beautiful. You mentioned the white bouquets don’t sell, but I think it’s because you put a lot of contrasting colors in your color bouquets. Contrasting colors draw the eye more making the white bouquets look boring by comparison. If there was a way to showcase the white, maybe put the white bouquet higher, or near the veggies instead where they’ll stand out against the green veggies.
SOOOOO PRETTY!! This is amazing!!
