Elizabeth

​Elizabeth left its tranquility to study history at Bowdoin College and historic preservation at the University of Pennsylvania.  Still very much involved in preserving the architectural heritage of New England, Elizabeth divides her time caring for sons Andrew and Henry and the goats, making and selling cheese and volunteering in her community to preserve and promote history, architecture, farming and life in a small town.

Peter

Peter grew up in neighboring Ipswich sailing and fishing. Always interested in machinery, carpentry and manufacturing, he saw farmstead cheese making as a way to a "renaissance" lifestyle. One part animal husbandmen, one part mechanic, one part carpenter, foodie and on and on. He also works off the farm as a Registered Investment Advisor at Essex Private Wealth Management in Topsfield.

Mary

Elizabeth's mother Mary Brown is also a critical part of Valley View Farm.  The actual owner of the farm, Mary helps keep life on the farm and in the house running smoothly.  Her main responsibility is taking care of the annual crop of goat kids.  They are treated to the "good life" by starting out in her kitchen, where most folks like to hang out when visiting the farm. Mary is also the main deliverer of Valley View's cheeses on the North Shore.

ANDREW & HENRY
Picture
Andrew is a senior at Bowdoin College studying biochemistry. He is greatly missed at the farm, but when he comes home he is right back to work with animal care, affinage in the cheese cave, gardening, beekeeping, haying and more.

Henry is a freshman at Babson College in Wellesley. He likes scuba diving, hiking, gaming, and mowing the lawn. We are looking forward to new entrepreneurial ideas that he'll bring back from business school.
