Description

The speaker for the 4th webinar, titled, Blooms is My Life, shared an inspiring story of ups and downs before achieving his stature in the cutflowers industry. Mr. Filemon Faner is the owner of Green Thumb Garden located in Silang Cavite.

While Mr. Faner struggled to finish his college education to earn his BS Agriculture degree due to financial problems, he was able to gain experiences that he used when he formally entered the workforce. From being a student assistant and research aid, to working in different farms, he was able to learn skills that he used and helped him build his own farm.

Having been blessed with the opportunity to start the business from a greenhouse loan, Mr. Faner was able to successfully develop their business to how it is now. From having just one greenhouse from loan, he was able to build a few more greenhouses, of which he was also the designer.

Mr. Faner’s story is one that inspires aspiring agripreneurs that challenges exist, but it also comes with learnings. And that these learnings should be appreciated and used to improve in the business.
