5 easy bits of preparation to Market your Flower Farm at the start of 2026
In this week's episode of Mulch, Rebecca shares five simple, practical ways to prepare your flower-farm marketing for the start of 2026 — from sorting your photos with purpose, to reconnecting with your business values, to identifying which customers you want to be speaking to as the new year begins. She explores why reusing your own best-performing content is not cheating but smart, sustainable marketing — and why worrying less and doing more will always serve your business far better than trying to be perfect. Rebecca also shares an update on Grow Club, including the newly uploaded teaching library, the upcoming reflection session on 9th December, and the limited mentoring sessions available for the next three members. If you'd like structure, support and a grounded community as you prepare for 2026, you can join Grow Club here: https://silvergreyfoliage.com/grow-club/

Beginnings and endings at Silver Grey Foliage
In this week's reflective episode of Mulch, Rebecca shares two stories from Silver Grey Foliage that shape the way she understands resilience and reflection that it takes to grow a flower farm. From the unlikely moment she met the farmer who offered her her growing space, to the family tradition that marks the end of each season, these stories uncover the quiet determination and gentle hope that sit beneath every successful growing year. Rebecca also explores what real resilience looks like for flower farmers — not "pushing through," but creating structure, accountability, learning, and community so you don't grow alone. She closes with a look at how these themes have shaped the ROOTS framework and the vision for Grow Club in 2026. If you'd like support, structure, and community as you plan for the season ahead, Grow Club's early bird pricing is available until Sunday at midnight — now is the perfect time to join.
