Morgan Gerstenberger - Services Operations Manager
Morgan fell in love with growing food after she found it deepened her appreciation for preparing meals with seasonal and local produce (she loves to cook!). She comes from an organic vegetable farming background and has also enjoyed spending time working for a local nursery growing annual flower and vegetable starts. She is excited to be joining the SUFCo team and looks forward to helping others grow their own beautiful gardens!"
Colin McCrate
Colin has been growing food organically for the past 15 years. He worked on a variety of small farms in the Midwest before moving to the west coast in 2003 to teach garden-based environmental education. Quickly realizing that Washington is the most beautiful state in the Union, Colin has been farming, teaching and designing landscapes ever since. He founded the Seattle Urban Farm Company in January of 2007 and still looks forward to planting potatoes every spring.
Brad Halm
Brad’s interest in food production started in a small vegetable garden at the Homestead, an experiential living center at Denison University in Ohio. After graduating, he apprenticed on organic farms around Ohio for several years, then took a position as the CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) Manager for Village Acres Farm in Pennsylvania. He moved to Seattle in 2007 to help Colin start the Seattle Urban Farm Company, and he is still building urban farms to this day.
