Julie was travelling in Asia when the pandemic hit last year. With no mobile phone reception, she had no warning that a pandemic was about to sweep the world. It was only when she received missed calls, and message notifications that she realised what was happening.
The following days trying to get home were a rollercoaster with flights getting cancelled, and she was very grateful when she finally landed in Dublin.
Family tradition
Julie is Waterford born and bred, and her family has been synonymous with the arable seed business for generations. Farming at Ballinakill on the outskirts of Waterford city, Julie’s great-great-great-grandfather William Power established the first nursery, seed merchants and florist way back in 1859.
