Jacob here. A lot of times I’m at the nursery by myself slaving away with the carnivorous plants. Sometimes the only people I get to chat with are the folks at the Post Office. Well, I finally found an outlet to share my time at the nursery - Facebook! Get a sneak peak behind the scenes at the nursery. Find out what I plan to do for the day, what the weather is like, how I’m coping with the endless projects or even what I’m eating for lunch. It’s also a fantastic way to see what other growers are up to with their carnivorous plants. So if you’ve always wanted to know what life at the nursery is like, check us out on Facebook. Make sure to search for Sarracenia Northwest. Let’s be friends!
