Today we’re visiting with sisters Jessica Hall & Stephanie Auville, from Harmony Harvest Farm in Weyers Cave, Virginia to discuss:
- the beach-side conversation that led to the creation of their family-run business - Harmony Harvest Farm
- the scope of what they grow on the farm
- the services they provide to their retail and wholesale customers
- their thoughts on the importance of learning to ship their product efficiently (they've just released The Flower Shipping Course to help others do the same)
- what a typical farming year looks like at Harmony Harvest Farm
- the team structure responsible for managing the farm
- the advantages of working together in a family business
- how they spend their off season
