Judy started HCF. She develops meal plans for the CSAs, maintains our website, and writes our blog. Judy is now in her seventies, and you are not likely to see her at our early morning markets, because she is sleeping in.
Erasmo worked part-time on the farm for years, He became a partner in 2016 and lives in Siler City. You can meet him at the Saturday Durham Farmers' market on alternate Saturdays. He is active in all aspects of the farm, is our main tractor guy, and is transitioning into doing the book-keeping. He and his wife Yoli work on the farm. Also, you can find them at the Durham Farmers' Market with their son Michael who is a math-wise.
We are a great team.
