The Farmers

From Left: Deb, Hannah, Hope, Roy, Julie

Since 1982, Roy and Hope Brubaker have cared for the farm. 2012 saw a newly formed partnership between Roy and his daughter Debra. Together, they run the daily operations of the farm, assisted by family and a team of interns.

All of the Brubaker children have been involved in the work of the farm over the years. Angela helped establish the farm’s CSA in 1998. Phoebe and Deb expanded the farm crew during college breaks. Roy Dale and his wife Julie Hurst raise lamb, beef and pork for the CSA at Blue Rooster Farm nearby.
