Who We Are

We’re first-generation farmers with a passion for real food, healing, and self-sufficiency — inspired by masters like Joel Salatin, Michael Kilpatrick, Greg Judy, and others who’ve paved the way for regenerative agriculture.

 

We farm in the beautiful Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia, but our story starts elsewhere. Originally from Baltimore, MD, we’ve both lived in many places. Andrew’s military career took him around the world and across the southeastern U.S., while Jennifer’s love for food was shaped by growing up in a big Italian family where the kitchen was always full and the garden was never far away.

 

We both grew up with vivid memories of our grandparents’ and great-grandparents’ gardens. At the time, we didn’t realize just how deeply those moments would shape us — but they planted seeds. As adults, we realized we wanted that visceral feeling of growing food again.

 

We are survivors that farm.  Farming became part of our healing. Both of us live with the effects of PTSD, and working the land has been a grounding, restorative journey — one that’s helped us reconnect with nature and with our purpose.

 

We’re not just growing food — we’re growing resilience, community, and a different kind of future.
