  • Jerusha K.

    Jerusha has a passion for nature and understanding the human experience. Her education in psychology, sociology, and physiology has led to a holistic perspective of the connections between people and the ecosystem. With a lens of "beauty in all things" she’s earnestly been able to help nurture the flowers on BCF’s sister farm, where she has learned of the impact the environment has on our lives.

  • Ethan Pearah

    Farmer | (he/him)

    Hello, my name is Ethan and I am from San Diego, California. I study Sustainable Agriculture & Food Systems at UC Davis. I am very passionate about connecting people to food production and helping people improve their understanding of food to make it one of the most healthy and enjoyable parts of life! In my free time I enjoy making music, taking photos, surfing, cooking, and caring for my garden. My favorite vegetable might have to be the onion or really the whole Allium family because of their fantastic culinary uses.

  • Zach Orlando-Milbauer

    Hi, my name is Zach and I am a sustainable agriculture and food systems major at the University of California Davis. I am from Boston Massachusetts, so I am sure the east coast is the best coast. In my free time I enjoy playing volleyball and spending time outdoors. My favorite vegetable on the farm are the cucumbers!
