Queens Produce and Berry Farm

John and Amy

John and Amy Chartier are excited to be a part of Queens Berry Farm! John grew up on a farm in Kansas raising various grains and beef cattle. He studied Agronomy at Kansas State University, while Amy studied Agricultural Engineering. Both have worked in agriculture in some capacity since college.

 

They have always maintained a personal vegetable garden and both apprenticed for a year on an organic vegetable farm in Maine. John and Amy have dreamed of having their own farm for several years, and although they’ve considered many properties, had not found an opportunity that fit their needs.

 

While working at YMCA Camp Greenville, they discovered Queens Berry Farm and are thrilled to be able to join the farm. They are currently living in the Catskills of New York where John is directing farm camps, but hope to make it back to Brevard soon with daughter Hannah (age 1 year). They miss the friendly faces and beauty of western North Carolina!
