GreenDreams' Public Nursery is Open!

[@ritahe.4405]

Went on a date day with hubby and we had a blast! Katarina helped us pick out the right plants for our shady backyard. She is very friendly, knowledgeable and patient! Thanks Katarina! We will be back! Pete you’ve done a great job!

[@SFQS]

Mad respect for the straightforwardness Pete, no aimless idealism or preaching, just showing it as it is and what it's going to be. If I was living in the Florida area I'd jump on the opportunity in a heartbeat.

[@hectorclan1]

Pete's great. I don't know him well BUT I took my granddaughter (she's 8) there soon after he opened and we had a conversation, bought some plants. Went a couple months later and Pete remembered her, probably because she's talks so much. Anyway, the trees I bought are doing great. Pay him a visit!

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Thank you! I still remember her 😊

[@MatsukawaZaraki]

I shop here literally weekly! Such a great place, huge selection, and knowledgable staff!

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

You’re the best! I seriously appreciate helping to support our small business and dream 👊

[@cliveburgess4128]

Huge project!! I think nothing new to you!!! Enjoying watching it develop , Thank you!!!

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

More to come! 👊

[@RichardNolan-p2v]

Loving everything I see very exciting

[@kablevins]

Congratulations, Pete! I know this has been a long time coming for you with many challenges along the way. Every time we drive by your nursery, we enjoy seeing the progress. It's exciting to know you are open and we can stop in now. On growing food for your gopher tortoise, I can tell you that ours loves trumpet creeper flowers. They are falling this time of year and carpet the ground near his burrow. We see him "vacuuming" them up every day. Such a treat.

[@georgegreek834]

you need to get some rain barrels on those roofs. itll help alleviate the constant pressure from the well/pump. you should also consider planting an orchard. then you can sell the fruit when they come into season. customers can taste the fruit before buying the trees type of thing

[@fezwhy]

Quite the transformation! I only wish I lived closer.

[@michaelkisiel1646]

Fortunate to be only 20 minutes away. Have made several visits already. Big fan of the nursery.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

We appreciate the support and feedback 🙌

[@talkandeattv]

will definitely be stopping by next year to get a bunch of day avocados, thanks for all the knowledge over the years !

[@tumbllweed]

It has been great to watch this journey. Wishing you the best of success with the new nursery! It looks great!

You and me both! 👊

[@docgrowsfood]

Everything I got from the new nursery this Spring is thriving. Any friends, colleagues, patients, even strangers that are interested in getting started with fruit trees and gardening in general, I point them straight to your nursery and KZbin channel. I even talked a stranger at Lowes, with a cart full of sub-par fruit tress and banana varieties, into putting them back on the shelf and getting some real heavy hitters (ex. Dwarf Namwah) from your nursery instead.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Wow, you’re awesome! 🙌👊

Great video. Looking good.

Pete! So friggin proud of what you have done brother. I have been watching your videos since that one when u were on your bike going to check out what JimK had "growing on"!!?? Thats been a minute, man. I don't comment often to any u tubes. But You are an inspiration an I pray that you continue to do great things and share them with us.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Thank you for the comment! I appreciate you 👊

[@allrightallrightallright1919]

I feel the same about technology.😆😅 Your channel inspired me to get back into planting, I’ll have to stop by next time I’m up that way. Looks like an exciting project! I’ll be watching for any grafting classes in the future.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Definitely stop in! I’ll get something on the schedule for fall 😉

[@albertnett7864]

Great update.

[@4evermetalhead79]

I would love to be like Pete. Pete is just very inspirational, motivates me to keep going in the dirt even with a 45c temperature and four sweaty shirts so far. I love this energy and keep thinking 5 steps ahead visualising the changes we will do on the field in real time.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Much love! 🙌

I’ll start by saying I shop here regularly but wanted to ask if you plan on getting back to more educational videos again. I’d like more of them.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Awesome bro! I appreciate the support. I need another local editor 😬

[@4zooflorida]

How exciting! I can’t wait to come by and buy some plants for my food forest.

[@rprimbs]

Pete, you are an inspiration. I've gotta plant some squash around too. Good idea!

[@EP-qi8ed]

With the massive greenhouse you will build, can you do rainwater collection and put that water in a cistern? 2nd well sounds essential, too.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Actually it’s a shade house, it won’t stop the water. Definitely needing a well too 🙏

[@charlotteking8123]

It looks beautiful as always, Pete! My interest is in the agroforestry. I've planted trees all over my place with varied results and I think that the agro rows are the way to go. Have lots of ideas but would love a workshop here to learn/share in person.

[@terrieholloway9066]

❤ wish we lived closer…

[@brokenarrow2835]

You might what to turn the cow peas under for the manure and nitrogen, it will do wonders for your soil. You have done an amazing job with the property.

[@whatyallplanting]

Look forward to coming out to the Nursery one day!

[@janele2488]

Amazing progress!! I'm so happy you got all the red tape worked out and are moving forward!! Next I suggest a band stage!! How cool would that be! Congrats on all the hard work. 🎉🎉

Surprised you don’t have a pond usually most nurseries do to keep the water on the property then they can pump out of the pond and there just endlessly reusing the same water that runs off the nursery operations. Or having wells and ponds for extra water security
