Mike runs Red Hawk Rise Organics, a USDA Certified Organic fruit & vegetable farm, with his spouse in Harpers Ferry, WV. Since 2017 they have grown for farmer's markets and a CSA. They offer top-tier quality vegetables grown with sustainability and environmental awareness as the foundations of their farming practices. They believe that the best food is produced when farmers are in as close contact with the plants as possible.
In 2023, Mike completed the IOIA Organic Crop Inspection Training and became an organic crop farm inspector.
Mike attended Oberlin College and has a Master’s Degree in Physics from the University of Pennsylvania.
