đ± Happy Father's Day to our very own Plant Whisperer! đŁ
Itâs Fatherâs Day, and I (Kelly) canât resist jumping in to celebrate my husband, Lonny!
Sure, Lonny can build a food forest that would make Mother Nature jealous. Yes, he's basically a plant whisperer who can coax plants and trees to grow in places where they have no business growing. And okay, he's taught countless people how to turn their backyards into mini food forests...
BUT let's be real: his GREATEST achievement? Being Dad to our amazing kids. đ„°
Though if you ask him after a long day, he might say his greatest achievement is being able to land a fish anywhere, anytime, including catching the only fish in the ocean when nobody else can get a single bite. Youâve heard the stories. Youâve seen the photos! And a precious few of us have experienced first-hand the humiliation of sitting next to Lonny empty handed while he catches fish after fish after fish after fish after fishâŠ.well, you get the idea đđđ
But I digress! Lonny, you cultivate more than just plants, youâve grown incredible humans, teaching them to love the earth, appreciate good food, and how to humbly accept that they will never win First â Biggest â Most in a fishing competition with you (although, maybe âhumbly acceptâ is a bit of an overstatement lol).
I am so grateful for everything you do, from cultivating the food forest and taking care of our farm, to being the roots of this family â the foundation that keeps us grounded! đłâ€ïž
Happy Father's Day, my Love! Now go catch a fish or something. đ
We are open today from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., AND WE DO HAVE MANGOS AND FRUIT AVAILABLE!!! We are located at 2670 San Juan Street in DeLand and hope you will bring Dad by today to pick up a fruit tree or two!
