About this episode

Lisa discusses the financial aspects of running a flower farm, focusing on spending decisions that impact long-term success.

Let’s talk money—the kind that keeps your flower farm alive or quietly drains it dry. In this episode, Lisa digs into the tough truth about spending on the farm: what’s worth it, what’s not, and how to make choices that lead to long-term success instead of slow collapse. If you're ready to face your farm finances head-on, this one's for you. Originally published as episode #337 on 4/08/25.
