Ashley Rodgers has been appointed the new manager of certified organic Serenbe Farms. In 2005, Paige Witherington and Justin Dansby started the farm, which now boasts a beautiful and colorful blanket of crops producing 80,000 pounds of harvest annually.

Rodgers grew up in Rochester Hills, Michigan, and graduated from the College of Charleston with a B.S. in business administration with a concentration in finance. While working in restaurants during college, she developed an interest in food and was led to Serenbe Farms, where she fell in love with farming. After her apprenticeship, she built gardening infrastructures, greenhouses, CSA and a farmers’ market, and managed the organic vegetable production for White Oak Pastures, in Bluffton.
