mr-and-mrs-miller
Ben Miller is our Field Manager, and has been on the farm since 2002, and he does just a little of everything. He's in the fields a lot, bringing in the grains so that our cows are fed and our mill is running. He also has a real soft spot for the cow, and is in charge of milking them one weekend every month.Ben loves anything mechanical -from restoring antique tractors to tinkering with cars. He also likes building things - especially woodworking - guns and trucks. Don't let that fool you. Ben is a romantic at heart; as you know if you've read about his romantic proposal and subsequent marriage to his wife Aeriel.
Education: Associated Degree in Sustainable Agriculture from Central Carolina Community College
Family: Married with four dogs, multiple cats, and pigs. He's also George Teague's nephew

buck truitt
Howard "Buck" Truitt has worked on our farm - and now in the mill - for over 40 years. Buck does a bit of everything around here; he's the quintessential farm hand, and he's been lending his hand through thick and thin! Buck's mechanical inclinations make him an invaluable for fixing whatever we need to have fixed, and he's great with the animals, too.When he's not helping here, you'll find Buck at a yard sale, playing with his amazing grandchildren (just ask him), or tinkering with old cars - or one of his three beautifully aging trucks.
Education: Altamahaw Ossippee High School
