Welcome to the Farm !
Dulinfarms Nursery has been producing and selling annual and perennial plants to the public since 1996. In 2000 our Greenhouse production area grew from 1700 to 3800 square feet and our field production grew from 1000 to 16,000 square feet. In the spring of 2003 a fast moving thunder storm took two of our three greenhouses. Needless to say it was time to start over. By the spring of 2004 we were back in action with almost a 1/4 of an acre under cover, and our field production of ornamental grasses, daylily and hosta is rapidly approaching an acre.
So, please enjoy your virtual visit to our farm and if you have any questions please feel free to contact us at any time.
Enjoy,
Darron G. Dulin

Your Key to "Perennial" Success
The photo's below also include a shot of our new to us flat and pot filling machine. This machine manufactured by Bouldin and Lawson of TN can fill up to 1200 bedding flats per hour. It also can fill pots from 6 inch, to one gallon and as large as 12 inches tall. This machine is almost 10 years old but certainly does a great job for our needs. If time allows I will try to add more production photo's. As you can see our production for this year is 3 times what it was for last season so time is at a premium.
After a week of deep thought and prayer Teresa and I decided to jump back in with both feet and started planning for the construction of replacement greenhouses. As you can see we are and have been very busy!
On Easter Sunday of 2003 a fast moving thunderstorm with winds above 90mph destroyed 2 out of 3 of our production greenhouses. Luckily we were blessed and 80% of our plants were salvageable. Below are a few photo's of the mess we found after coming home from Easter dinner.
