Day in the Life of a Flower Farmer💐🌅 Hi, I’m Skylar Richardson, owner of SkyGardens. As a South Plains native & LCU graduate, I discovered my passion for locally grown flowers while working at a flower shop. After debating between becoming a doctor or lawyer after undergrad, I saw a need for locally grown flowers in Lubbock & chose to focus on addressing the challenges of flower preservation & transportation; leading to the creation of SkyGardens! Here, visitors can pick their own flowers & fill a jar for $35. With the addition of Highland cows & a bunny barn, they can fully immerse themselves in a true West Texas farm experience. SkyGardens also provides all the services of a traditional florist.🐰🐮💐 The people in Lubbock are something special; everything is so great here, & I know God is big enough to handle it all in Lubbock, Texas. For more info about me & SkyGardens visit: https://lnkd.in/gY5y9CGm #lifeinlubbock
