About Us

Farm manager, Andrew Johnson, grew up in southern Minnesota. Though surrounded by industrial agriculture, he never imagined farming as a career path for himself. While getting a degree in industrial and systems engineering at the University of Southern California, he wrote a paper about Los Angeles' food system. This paper, and the research which supported it, planted a seed of interest and got him asking how he might be a part of improving the food system. Upon graduation, Andrew took his "dream" job as an engineer at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Thinking he'd be there for 3-5 years so he could save up and buy a farm, it wasn't but eight months into his engineering job when the pandemic hit. Andrew quit his job, left Los Angeles, and decided to dive into farming full-time. Before arriving in New Hampshire, he worked on and managed vegetable farms in Michigan, Connecticut, and Massachusetts.
