hi there,
I'm Alyssa - a farmer, farmers market manager, and former marketing professional.
My farming journey began in 2018 on a picturesque hillside farm on the outskirts of Fairbanks, Alaska. From the moment my hands touched the soil, I was hooked.
Over the last six years, I've honed my skills while working at a broad range of farms where I've cultivated plants, tended to livestock, kept bees, milked goats, raised chickens and a whole lot more.
This might sound a bit cliché, but I've offered my blood, sweat and tears to the fields in which I've worked. But in return, it has nourished me (and many others) in ways I can't even begin to describe. At its core, farming is - and must be - a labor of love.
In 2024, I finally decided to take a leap and start my own farm venture. Find me this summer at the Sheffield Farmers Market, you can also find my veggies at The Farm New Marlborough Farm Store.
I would be remiss to not acknowledge this... I would not be where I am today without my incredible farmer mentors, supportive family & friends, and the generosity of my neighbors. I offer my deepest gratitude to you all.

grow forth in love,
❤ alyssa
