I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to live in Holland and work at a bulb factory that exports more than 500 million bulbs worldwide every year!While I was there I was trained on every step it takes to get these bulbs from the dirt to stores around the USA and the world.I helped harvest, clean, sort, package and load just about every different kind of tulip, hyacinths and daffodils.
