General Info

Tom and Martha Mercer bought a small farm from Martha’s father in 1978. Little did they know that within their lifetime they would see the fields and farm completely transformed. Tom and Martha were both teachers. Tom retired from teaching and he and his oldest son Craig decided to begin growing vegetables. They set up a small wagon alongside the road in front of their farm and sold their produce each summer. After college, Craig worked full time away from the farm. Despite having this full time job, Craig’s heart was truly at the farm. He and his wife Joanne helped Tom and Martha plant, grow, and harvest the crops that they continued to sell from the wagon.
