About us
Hi! I’m Amy, and I started farming in 2022, after a 25 year career as a documentary film editor. I was craving more time in nature and less time in front of a computer, and I needed a new challenge.
Located outside Davis, California, Katahdin Farm focuses on soil health to bring you the healthiest, most beautiful flowers and greens possible. We serve florists and retail customers in our local region, Sacramento, and the Bay Area.
My brother and I on the Knife Edge Trail, Mount Katahdin. A long time ago.
Why the weird name?
Mount Katahdin is the highest mountain in Maine, where I spent much of my childhood.
In Penobscot the name simply means ‘Great Mountain’. For me the mountain is not only where I spent some of my happiest days, It also represents a challenge undertaken, which is just what Katahdin Farm is.
