My name is Diane Mumm, and I have Studied Greenhouse Growing at the University of Hard Knocks. This is not to be underestimated. Since 1999 and many years of hands on experience which taught me everything you can’t necessarily find in a book.
Through my hands on education and experience in growing plants, plus hard work and determination, and really just a love for growing plants makes this one of the most rewarding things I have ever done.
I am still learning, and learning new things about the greenhouse business every year . Learning is continuous and contagious , what fun!
I must be honest here, I do not pretend to know everything , because let’s face it , new plants , new struggles happen in this business every day. All I can do is find a answer for you in hopes it helps you .
At times this has been a challenging career choice , blood , sweat and tears at times and that is no lie.. but without the love for what I do , I wouldn’t be hear right now talking about it to everyone.
A committed passion I have for growing , nurturing, and just complete appreciation for others that love what I do.
One thing I have always said and is true today is when a person walks through the door of the greenhouse and has a huge smile on their face, my reward has been accomplished. This in itself really makes what I do very worthy , the gratitude can be sometimes overwhelming.
I retired the greenhouse business in 2012 .. with no regrets I had a great 13 yrs but it was time to move on.. I still garden and share a lot of what I do here on the farm through my garden blog and my garden videos.. I hope you have time to visit..
