Locally Farmed, All Natural & Committed to Your Experience
Farmer John
“Farmer John” Spencer spent his career in public administration and finance until one day in late 2019 an observant client/friend told him that John didn’t really seem to love what he was doing. John said, “you’re right” and “I really love taking care of the land” and “I think I’ll become a farmer!” “Farmer John” knows nothing about farming, but he’s a quick study and is catching up quickly. He’s having the time of his life.
