Farming in a place like New Jersey presents a strange dichotomy.
On one hand, New Jersey has some of the best, most fertile farmland in the world; on the other: urban creep, development, field size, transportation, and land ownership itself all present a significant challenge. But Kevin Morrow, 36, doesn’t let those challenges get in the way of doing what he loves.
A New Jersey native not raised on an operation, Kevin’s first exposure to farm life came from his visits to his aunt and uncle at their home on a rented dairy farm.
“As a little kid, I would be there in the morning before and after school,” Kevin said. “I got to enjoy the farm lifestyle, and it just never left. I always enjoyed being in the field and watching the crops grow, watching field work, the smell of fresh dirt and hay. Just the feeling of being around the animals and enjoying the peace of it.”
