Ep. 129: Behind the Blooms: Flower Farming at Winkelmann Flowers

In today’s episode, we’re visiting with flower farmer Grant Winkelmann, owner of Winkelmann Flowers, in Lindale, Texas. Grant shares not only how he’s built a farm producing sought-after blooms, but he also shares what it took to pull off his family’s recent relocation to a new farm. Grant discusses the challenges of moving, including the logistical hurdles and the emotional impact of leaving behind a supportive community. He shares insights into his farming techniques, the importance of his partnership with his wife Carrington, who runs a floral design business called The Farmer & I, and their collaborative efforts in the flower industry.
