Email address: SHOW NOTES INTRODUCING ANDREA BUHROW!  It is always fascinating to me to speak with students who are just getting started with the FFA and have fascinating projects and businesses.  Today's is one of those shows. Andrea Buhrow loves flowers, and she is learning to love the flower business.  She has launched her own business called "The Flower Patch" and she is using the "u-pick" method to sell her flowers in her local community.  She is currently growing sunflowers, daffodils, tulips, lilies, gladiolas and other varieties that I did not get written down. Andrea is learning about marketing at the same time.  She has a Facebook Page called "The Flower Patch" where she introduces people to her business as well as her FFA story.  It will be fun to see how this business and project develop over time.
