Experience details
I was the General Manager of a diversified fruit and vegetable farm in Massachusetts. In addition to row crops, I oversaw the construction and operation of 65,000 square feet of greenhouses in which we mostly grew tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and lettuce for year-round delivery. Markets included roadside stand, restaurants, other farm stands and Whole Foods stores around Boston. The Commissioner of Agriculture awarded our farm as having the "Best Tasting Tomatoes in the State".
