Wow so you used to create new plants to sell at the market? How cool. I bet people loved them! What sort of potted perennials did you have?
I had over 100 or so variety of perennials and grasses plus I grew vines, annuals and veggies for sale. It was a lot of work. I did that for about 14 years, until my husband hurt is back and had to have a few operations. I did it one whole season by myself and it was way to much for me. Now, I make soaps and sell crystals online and stick to caring for my own gardens. It was hard to let the nursery go but, I so don't miss the constant hard work. lol Soapmaking is so much easier on my body and I am just starting to get a following online. Now, that is fun!
Wow that is an extremely impressive resume! I can only imagine how much hard work that must have been. But when you love what you do you just keep going until you can’t! I sure hope your husband has recovered from those operations.
Your new business ventures sound just as fun! What sort of soap do you make?
I focus on all natural, vegan friendly. But many customers like goats milk too so I just started a few of those. I use a lot of my organic herbs and flowers in my soaps. It is always fun to come up with something new. I have to get busy doing shower melts and body butters as it is safe to ship them now. Never a dull moment in my home. Here is a link if you would like to see them.

I had a look and your soaps look amazing! Do you have any eczema friendly ones? I'd love to try some if they can be shipped to Spain!
I will get back to you tomorrow as I have to leave for an appt now. I do have some. ;-)
I do have, most of them are great for sensitive skin as the oils I use are very nurturing. Here are a few I would choose:

If you want any let me know which ones and I will change my settings so you can purchase and ship to spain. Also, if you can get some of the ingredients I will send you a recipe for a cream that I make for eczema for my grandson that works wonders. Chat soon
Thanks for sharing those with me! My only concern now that I see where you are based is that I might have to pay customs charges for them to arrive with me :(
I would love that recipe for eczema cream when you have a moment! I'm always up for trying new natural creams :)
I so agree with you on the customs, they get my daughter and son every time I ship to panama. It is really too expensive for you to get them from me. I can give you a list of the ingredients that work best on sensitive, eczema prone skin so you can look for homemade soaps closer to you. I am sure there is someone you can find. I will work on that for you soon. xoxo
