NJ tulip farms during COVID-19: OK to buy from, not to drive through - New Jersey 101.5 FM Radio

Holland Ridge Farms is a family-owned flower farm in the Cream Ridge section of Upper Freehold, Monmouth County.Dalton Farms is a family-owned and run farm in Swedesboro, Gloucester County.Both locations host flower festivals twice a year — tulips in the spring and sunflowers in the fall. This year, the coronavirus pandemic derailed the spring tradition, but Dalton was able to run a drive-thru attraction for nearly three weeks before being told by the state to shut down on Sunday.Holland Ridge never had the chance, after owner Casey Jansen got a call the night before their planned start April 8.Jansen said Monday that it was never his intention for another farm to be shut down and that he's very happy Keith Dalton, whom he considers a friend, was able to run his trail for as long as he did as "his costs are now covered."Jansen said as for his situation, "I'm a million (dollars) in the hole," and still frustrated as to why he was singled out.FIRST RESPONDERS AND THE PANDEMIC: Thursday at 7 p.m., New Jersey 101.5 takes a special live look at the plight of first-responders on the front lines of the... https://nj1015.com/nj-tulip-farms-during-covid-19-ok-to-buy-from-not-to-drive-thru/

Meet your neighborhood florist, Urban Buds: City Grown Flowers - St. Louis Magazine

Karen “Mimo” Davis was a 31-year-old social worker, living in New York City, when her mother and stepfather asked her to look after their greenhouse in Missouri—and the property’s 132 rosebushes—while they honeymooned. “I fell in love with horticulture,” says Davis. Within the year, she left New York and bought a farm in Ashland, Missouri, where she began growing and selling flowers. (In 2008, Davis earned a master’s degree in horticulture.) In 2012, Davis and her then-partner (now wife), Miranda Duschack, got word of a greenhouse for sale in Dutchtown. Feeling adventurous, they bought the greenhouse—designed by Lord & Burnham in the ’50s—with an acre of land, eventually acquiring eight more plots that were once the site of Held’s Florist, a flower farm, dating back to the 1800s. Today, the farmstead is known as Urban Buds: City Grown Flowers, where more than 70 varieties of flowers are grown. “We’re in the heart of the city,” says Davis. “Few people get to connect with farming, and [our shop] gives them the opportunity.” ... https://www.stlmag.com/design/urban-buds-flowers/

These Flowers Spring Back After Being Smooshed - Science Friday

One of the authors of this study, Nathan Muchhala, an assistant professor of biology at the University of Missouri in St. Louis, joins Science Friday to discuss the unique properties of flowers. He discusses flowers’ amazing resilience, as well as how plants and pollinators are responding to fewer people out and about. See more flower species that can bounce back!Dactylorhiza fuchsii that had been tethered bounces back.

Paul Burrell says wife cried over gay wedding revelation - Stock Daily Dish

S in Chester since 2010, having previously spent 22 years working for Lloyds Bank.They were also pictured together on Facebook at the Blackberry Creek Retreat Bed & Breakfast, during a holiday in Missouri, US, in 2014, two years before Mr Burrell‘s divorce.The couple were not at home today – and Mr Burrell was not at his florists, his staff said.Mr Burrell has always refused to discuss his sexuality despite a 2002 expose in which an Australian man claimed they had enjoyed a three-year relationship in the early 1980s before he married Maria.However, a source close to the former butler has revealed that he confided in his special friend, Princess Diana.They told the Sun: ‘Paul‘s friends and family all know but for a long time he kept it a closely guarded secret.‘He did share it with Diana while he worked with her because they were so close.‘But at the time she was the only woman he felt he could tell.‘Mr Burrell and his wife announced their divorce just months ago, but it is believed that they had been living separately for some time before they split up.While he decided to stay in Cheshire, Maria now lives in a luxury home in Florida.Burrell now runs his florist, Paul Burrell Flowers, close to where the family used to live in the village of Farndon.Last month he was pictured taking flowers inside the store and serving customers. Although he is not thought to work there on a day-to-day basis. Paul and Maria Burrell met while they were both working at Buckingham Palace, with Maria serving as the Duke of Edinburgh‘s maid, and married in 1984.An established tradition suggested one of them should give up their job with the Royal Family, but the Queen made an exception for them, allowing both to remain in Royal service.Mr Burrell started working for Diana four years later and went on to become one of her most trusted members of staff.He joined Prince Charles and Diana at Highgrove House in Gloucestershire in 1987 and remained there until her death in 1997.Mr Burrell then made millions from a series of books about his life with the princess and from appearing on reality shows such as I‘m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here.How William and Harry blasted Burrell‘s ‘betrayal‘ of their mum Princes William and Harry attacked former royal butler Paul Burrell for his ‘cold and overt betrayal‘ of their mother.In a 2003 statement unprecedented for its strength of feeling, William, then 21 and also speaking on behalf of his younger brother, showed his deep pain at Mr Burrell‘s revelations in his tell-all book.The Princes said the late Diana, Princess of Wales, would have been ‘mortified‘ at his actions if she were alive today.They called on him to put an end to his disclosures.Mr Burrell, who worked for the Princess, made a series of claims including one that Diana feared for her life and spoke of a plot to tamper with the brakes of her car.Prince William said in the statement released by Clarence House: ‘We cannot believe that Paul who was entrusted with so much could abuse his position in such a cold and overt betrayal.‘It is not only deeply painful for the two of us but also for everyone else affected and it would mortify our mother if she were alive today and, if we might say so, we feel we are more able to speak for our mother than Paul‘.In the international bestseller he c... https://stockdailydish.com/paul-burrell-says-wife-cried-over-gay-wedding-revelation/

Meet the Florida fans who sent get-well cards to Feleipe Franks - Tampa Bay Times

Kissimmee.All to a quarterback who might never play another snap for the Gators, one whose relationship with the fan base has been mixed, at best.RELATED: Five reasons to care about Florida-Missouri“I know he takes a lot of heat from people thinking that he’s just the worst thing that ever happened to Florida,” said Woody Bass, a 48-year-old Georgia resident who will graduate from UF's online program in May. “I didn’t want him to think that.”Neither did Laurie Bonham.?? Will the #Gators beat the brakes off Missouri? Can #FSU clinch a bowl berth? Will #USF slow down Cincinnati??@MBakerTBTimes gives us his picks against the spread in a brand-new Three & Out ????? https://t.co/rFBtzbVrwd pic.twitter.com/3SNikKXxLD— The Identity Tampa Bay (@TheIdentityTB) November 14, 2019“I just felt so bad for him,” said Bonham, a recently retired 64-year-old in Oldsmar.The physical injury was bad enough. But Franks has been a frequent target from fans for most of the past three seasons.One of the lows came last November against Missouri, who hosts the Franks-less Gators this weekend. Franks was booed in the first half and benched in the second of a 38-17 embarrassing home loss to the Tigers. Franks had won every game since then, but Bonham still saw too many people bashing him, despite the improvements he was making in Year 2 under coach Dan Mullen.“His mom was on this web page, and I felt bad for her, too,” Bonham said. “Nobody needed to be doing that. It was just poor manners.”Laurie Bonham (right, seen here with close friend Christy Fraser) was one of the Florida Gators fans who sent get-well cards to injured quarterback Feleipe Franks. [LAURIE BONHAM Special to the Times]Something good came from all the social media chatter: Bonham saw someone post a P.O. box that would collect mail for Franks.Judy Long noticed, too. During her lunch break, the 59-year-old walked from her job at a community bank in Polk County to a Publix down the street to find a card — maybe something with flowers on it.“I’m sure he was down and out,” said Long, a lifelong Florida fan. “A little card like that brightens someone’s day.”Long wrote a note, too, promising to wave at him from the Section 55, Row 4 seats her family has held for almost four decades.Reyce Ramsey went one step farther.
