    Thanks for posting this video. Austin did a great job explaining all the plant varieties and how he uses them in the landscape. I wish I had known about this presentation as I’m only 20 minutes or so from your nursery. Is there a distribution list to get on for future talks?

    Thank you for posting this video. Austin did a great job. How can I get on your contact list for future talks as I’m only 20 minutes from northwind.

    Austin is awesome! I learned a lot from his knowledge and creative talent. Thanks for this posting! One of my new goals is to weed one-handed, with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine in hand! Just terrific!

    Very interesting video, not just because of all the plant information, also wonderful to hear how Austin's career started.
