Your flower journey has been a long and winding one. I thought it would be fun to have Steve share a little more about his flower farm, the sunflowers he’s been breeding, and his upcoming seed sale on April 1, 2023. Steve is one of the kindest, most generous people I know and it has been such an honor to get to play a small part in his flower journey. And during the winter months, he shares a lot of really interesting videos about how he utilizes these magnificent birds of prey to combat pests, such as rabbits, on his farm. In addition to being a flower farmer and sunflower breeder, Steve is also a master falconer. After getting to experience Steve’s beautiful creations, it became clear that he was really onto something and we encouraged him to follow the trail so that he could one day release his beauties out into the world. Two short weeks later Steve Kaufer flew out to the farm to meet us and we ended up planting a huge field of his amazing sunflowers to trial here in our climate. His sunflowers were like nothing I had ever seen before and I immediately picked up the phone. A few years ago we got an email out of the blue from a flower farmer in Wisconsin who sent a picture of some sunflowers he had been breeding and wanted to see if we might be interested in offering them.
