Farmer Information:
I currently operate a small agricultural business focused primarily on beekeeping and honey production and own a retail business that provides an established market for farm and value-added products. I am looking for land where I can gradually develop a diversified, ecologically managed farm focused on perennial fruits such as pawpaws, figs, persimmons, peaches, berries, and elderberries, alongside seasonal crops, pollinator habitat, and soil-building cover crops.
I have several years of experience in beekeeping, honey production, fruit tree cultivation, orchard establishment, and agroecological growing systems, including partnering with municipalities to establish public food forest parks on public land.
My goal is to start at a manageable scale and develop the farm thoughtfully over time, with an emphasis on diversification, soil health, conservation, and low-input management. I am primarily interested in purchasing land and am also open to conserved farmland, creative farm-transfer arrangements, and properties where long-term agricultural stewardship is important to the current owner.
Agricultural Degrees / Certifications:
Certificate in Agroforestry — University of Missouri Center for Agroforestry
Certified Beekeeper — University of Georgia
My agricultural education has also included ongoing workshops, field days, farm visits, and independent study focused on agroforestry, beekeeping, orchard systems, soil health, and diversified ecological agriculture.
