Our Family, Our Business...

We are husband and wife Ed Bowser and Amy Knisley. We met in spring 2004, at an organic farming conference in New Hampshire. We were both reviewing successful professional careers in two very different fields, envisioning more gardening in our lives. In spring 2006, we launched Betsy's Farm on land free-leased to us by Betsy Giberson, our friend and neighbor. Late that first season, our daughter Phoebe was born.
We have gradually grown into bringing our family and our business together, in a way that reflects and expresses our values and interests. As with many farming families, we blend gardening for market with other income streams--Amy's work in higher education, and Ed's pursuits as an electrician specializing in renewable forms and sources of electricity.
