MEET YOUR FARMERS

Kate
Seed Planter

Growing up in the mild climate of the Bay Area of California, Kate developed a passion for eating with the seasons and knowing where her food came from. Coupled with a love for animals she decided to study veterinary medicine, specializing in food animal production. She started her career as a large animal dairy vet in the Central Valley. A few years later she entered into mixed animal practice, met Patrick, bought a farm, and started a family. Few things besides spending time with her family make her happier than growing flowers.

Patrick
Seed Keep-Aliver

Patrick is a sixth-generation farmer. He grew up raising livestock and stacking hay bales in Northern Nevada. However his new found agricultural passion here in the Sacramento valley is raising trees—olives, stone fruit, and citrus. The orchard is his happy place. He’s just as content standing in the leafless orchard of winter planning his next pruning cuts as he is picking ripe warm peaches in the middle of summer harvest.
