My goal is to build a family farm focused on growing fresh fruits and vegetables, raising chickens for farm-fresh eggs, and operating a small roadside farm stand. I bring decades of fruit tree experience, agricultural knowledge, and valuable resources. Most importantly, I want to pass this lifestyle on to my daughter, teaching her hard work, responsibility, and entrepreneurship. I believe growing up connected to the land and agriculture helps build good human beings. I’m looking to connect with

Goals, Values, Vision
I grew up with a strong connection to agriculture through my family’s farm, a generational operation spanning more than 600 acres of cherries, apples, peaches, and a variety of other fruits. My grandfather started the farm, and my uncle continues to operate it today. Through those years, I’ve gained decades of hands-on agricultural experience, fruit tree knowledge, and heavy machinery operating experience. While I deeply value that family legacy, the opportunity to carry on the operation isn’t available to me, so I’m looking to establish a farm of my own. This has truly been a lifelong dream. I don’t shy away from hard work, and my biggest goal is to build a family farm where I can grow, learn, and pass this way of life on to my daughter.
