Jeremy Brunner ’94 and his family have been in the business of manufacturing environmentally friendly gardening products since 1929. While he knew joining the family business was always an option, it wasn't until he started taking entrepreneurship classes at Cornell that he seriously considered taking over the business one day.

The Farmer Nick Jr. kids course is LIVE 🥳⁣ ⁣https://lnkd.in/g9234FKt I’m so excited to share The Adventures of Farmer Nick and Plant; a ZERO COST course for kids to learn all about plants. I never had any plant or gardening role models growing up, which is why I believe it is so vital that children (especially young boys) learn the values of caring for the planet. This is why I wanted to build this course and I collaborated with an educational consultant to make sure my vision was built with defined educational standards. Here’s everything you need to know:⁣ ⁣ WATCH THE SERIES 📺
Because I want to make the course accessible to as many kids as possible, all five episodes in the series are completely FREE! Follow Farmer Nick and Plant as they complete different plant projects in an educational (and very silly) format. EXPLORE THE WORKBOOK 📝⁣ To further your learning, parents, guardians and teachers have the option to purchase a comprehensive workbook filled with even more plant fun! There are 15 plant activities and projects to choose from and so much to learn. ⁣ HUGE thank you to my wonderful partner Fiskars for sponsoring this course. They were my first ever Farmer Nick partner and their kids scissors and garden tools are awesome ✂️⁣

After finding a vintage adobe sculpture, I felt inspired to turn it into a plant-filled diorama and night light for a future bedroom that we're renovating. Check out some of the plants and products that made this DIY come to life.⁣ With The Espoma Company https://lnkd.in/gHejFeAF

I was down in Davidsonville, MD again at Homestead Gardens to give a presentation—not on houseplants this time—but on ways to bring biodiversity to your lawn and creative ways to lawnscape, which is a topic I like to cover on our sister channel Flock Finger Lakes ⁣ Homestead Gardens is a very cool independent garden center, curating all sorts of lifestyle and home decor products, garden lifestyle, plants, and more, so I figured I’d meet up with their garden supervisor to take us on a quick tour of their houseplant selection.⁣ https://lnkd.in/ejy25Ts8

Congrats to Green Acres Nursery & Supply on opening their 9th retail location (2nd one in Texas). Before the inside area was even open, they were already featuring our products outside. We appreciate their support and are proud to be one of their vendors. The Espoma Company #espoma

As our houseplants grow happily under our care, eventually they will outgrow their current pots. Determining whether your plant needs to simply have its soil refreshed or be shifted to a larger container can be challenging for new plant parents. Join me as I walk you through when to pot up versus repot, proper techniques for both, tips to avoid issues, and how to turn repotting into an uplifting self-care ritual by really tuning into your plants’ needs and creating an environment that allows them to thrive. #mindfulliving #houseplants #plantcare
