I have lived all my life on this farm and participated in various roles as the farm and I grew up. I earned my Bachelors degree in International Business with a minor in hispanic studies, from Mt. St. Mary College in Newburgh, NY. After college I spent 20 years working for a real estate development corporation (yes you read that right!!) so much of my time was spent doing what I could to help promote the farm and make it grow while working in a 9 to 5 environment. Today I am the full time farmer and am looking forward to sharing my daily adventures with you. In 2004 I ws the first farmer honored with a MacArthur Genius Award and life has not been the same since.
