"I read a book in 1998 called 'The Flower Farmer,' by Lynn Byczynski, and I knew I had found my dream," said Ziegler.
Ziegler's been running her cut-flower farm, which sits on three acres of land, along with the help of some of her family, ever since.

Ziegler works 10 months out of the year, with May-October being her harvest months.
