Farmer Information:

Air Force Veteran who’s full time occupation has traditionally been a Pilot and flight instructor. I have always had a passion for gardening and agriculture in general but within the last year I decided to use the remainder of my GI Bill to attend Delaware Valley University for their Organic Farming Certificate Program.

I currently grow produce on a larger garden plot and have been raising broilers and egg layers for Farmers Markets and our roadside market stand. My goal is to find and lease land locally to scale my operation. I would like to get into market gardening on a larger scale as well as pasture raised livestock.

Current Herd Description:

Large flock of egg layers and I cycle through about 4 rotations of broilers per year.

Agricultural Degrees / Certifications:

Organic Farming certificate Program -Delaware Valley University 2025
