About Jayne:
Jayne Merner began operating a CSA at age nineteen, growing produce and flowers for her community. Farmer’s market customers remarked at the high quality of the produce grown and asked Merner to garden at their homes. This flowed into a side business tending gardens off the farm. In 2015, Jayne took over the family compost operation when her father retired. She is currently in the process of developing the first commercial composting operation in Connecticut.
