About

Tucker Withington

I grew up on a small hobby dairy farm in Schoharie, NY. We milked 30 Guernseys, grew our own feed, and had a 10+ acre vegetable garden. I fell in love with farming at birth. As a young boy I had a vegetable stand at the top of my driveway. It’s no surprise that today I sell my products in two local farmers markets.

My hobby is breeding and showing registered cows at a local and national level. This hobby seems to be contagious among my children. Dennet and Lilly recently purchased their first registered Guernseys and have already had wonderful success in the state and national show rings.

I also enjoy breeding and raising a variety of animals that we raise for meat production to sell locally at farmers markets, to local restaurants and out of our small shop on our farm.

Mackenzie Withington

Mackenzie was born and raised in Staten Island, NY and until 2003, city living was all she knew until she fell in love with a country farmer and her life has never been the same since… and she couldn’t be happier!

Mackenzie is a homeschool mom to 4 beautiful kids, Pittsboro’s Farmers’ Market manager and a full time farmer. She is passionate about teaching her children through literature, exploration, hands-on experiences and conversations. She finds peace and serenity in being at home with her family, being surrounded by pastures full of happy animals, caring for the gardens and watching over the country landscapes.

I am fortunate to have my family and our farm and I want to be able to share the enjoyment of the animals and our products with people everywhere.
