DRAFT <br /> 23 <br />LeAnn Brown: Ok. Why don’t… Let me look at it and then I can find my place and look when I need 1 <br />to ask for questions. What tab did you reference? 2 3 <br />Andy Petesch: Yep, well… 4 <br /> 5 <br />LeAnn Brown: Here you go. 6 <br /> 7 <br />Andy Petesch: Oh. Thanks… I have no further questions. I will… 8 <br /> 9 <br />LeAnn Brown: Need to mark those two so I can look at them. Ms. Brewer, I just have a few 10 <br />questions for you. Your… This cut flowers Zone A and B plan in SPG 1, has any of this been 11 <br />planted as of this day? 12 <br /> 13 <br />Kara Brewer: No, not yet. All of our beds have been laid out and we’re starting our seeds next 14 <br />week actually. It all happens this month and next. It’s just the time of year. 15 <br /> 16 <br />LeAnn Brown: So none of this. This is the plan. This… 17 <br /> 18 <br />Kara Brewer: Well actually my plugs are in and just because of the weather I couldn’t get them into 19 <br />the ground, today, actually. 20 <br /> 21 <br />LeAnn Brown: And were they in the ground when we had the hearings in the fall? 22 <br /> 23 <br />Kara Brewer: Yes.

It just depends on the particular bed. 36 <br /> 37 <br />LeAnn Brown: Now, as a person who is farming flowers, you must have some rough number of 38 <br />flowers that you have, plan to have and when you plan to have them seasonally. 39 <br /> 40 <br />Kara Brewer: Yes. They’re on. All listed on that list. 41 <br /> 42 <br />LeAnn Brown: Alright, and can you tell me what that number is, without asking me to do the math 43 <br />off your list? Because if you’re getting ready to plant them you must have some sense of that? 44 <br /> 45 <br />Kara Brewer: I do have a sense of that and as I stated it’s on the plan. It depends on which 46 <br />individual bed. We can sit here and go through and add each one if you would like to do that. You 47
