Hi, I’m Emily, one of the farmers at Watson and William Farm. I didn’t grow up in agriculture, and I never imagined that I would end up a farmer. I grew up in a suburban environment in Pennsylvania with dreams of going to college in New York City. 

I lived in Manhattan for two years and worked for an investment management firm until I realized that the stars were not aligning with my career choice. After a few too many days of crying my eyes out because I hated my job, I accepted the first job offer I came across, a fruit orchard farm position. 

This is where the passion for a farming way of life took over and now, I’m in love with the way food is raised. Fast forward a few years later and after falling for a 5^th-generation farm-boy, Mike, I set out to grow and develop a profitable direct-to-consumer beef business that could provide for our family while nourishing our community.
