Farm Owners
Amy is a native Mainer, having grown up in
Belgrade Lakes. After graduating from Boston University in 1995 with
a degree in Environmental Policy and Analysis, she settled in Boston
with Tom, where she lived for the next 5 years working as an
environmental educator and farm apprentice for the Massachusets
Audubon Society.
Amy enjoys time with friends talking and eating, visiting other farms, cooking, and spending time swimming,
floating, skating, or skiing on the river.
Tom is from the Catskill Mountain region of upstate New York. He is currently in charge of keeping all our machines running (with the help of our real mechanic, Bob Randall), farm bookkeeping, and managing our winter/off-season shares. Tom
has spent time as a high school math teacher, actuary and, most
recently, a computer programmer running his own computer programming business. But he's now semi-retired from computer work and focusing primarily on farm stuff.
Tom enjoys spending time
with Delia and Maggie & Amy, a good game of wiffle ball, biking, cooking, and chess.
Delia is 5 years old this season. One of her favorite dishes is kale
pizza, she asks for it when we go out for pizza too. Delia likes to pick flowers, tomatoes, and sugar snap peas.
She is looking forward to planting and weeding, and
especially enjoys her visits with CSA kids at the farm.
Maggie
is 3 1/2 years old this season and ready for adventure. Last season she most loved picking unripe cherry
tomatoes in our special patch just for Delia and Maggie. You would hear her say, "maytos... no pick the
green ones..." over and over as
she picked. Maggie loves to play with seeds that she finds in last year's flowers, to pick tiny berries
that are for the birds, and to get wet however possible and then take her clothes off.
