An arborist told Maria they have many older & more unique varieties on their property.
“Remembering my childhood, I was helping with farming tasks as early as 1st grade at just 6 years old.”
Growing up on a farm, Maria learned early on the difference between a weed and a bean. Was it inspiration or more likely perspiration!?! Tending to a vegetable garden as a youngster was a chore. So much so that Maria prefers flowers over veggies and canning.
With six siblings, Maria lead the kids to help out wherever needed.
