Send us Fan MailThis week on The Fresh Bunch, we're joined by our cousin from Canada, Karl of Greenpark Nursery. A grower by heart and a businessman by necessity, Karl shares the values that have shaped his family business: attention to detail, an unwavering commitment to quality, and the philosophy that if you wouldn't want to see it in a wedding bouquet, it shouldn't leave the farm.Known for its premium-cut ornamental branches and foliage, Greenpark Nursery has always focused on doing things the right way rather than the easy way. Karl gives us a look into his family's long-time dream—a new farm project set to begin production in 2029/2030—and discusses the challenges and rewards of building a business organically.Karl flips the questions to Mike and his decision to invest in a farm in Ecuador and the lessons learned along the way. The episode is filled with reflections on gratitude, family, and staying rooted in what matters most.
