Growing Good Food, Nourishing the CommunityTHe Crows Farm
Matthew and Giana have been farming at Viva since 2015. They met in Vermont, working together at a farm-to-table Italian Trattoria, both in the restaurant and managing the restaurant garden. Seeking milder climates, they decided to relocate West and pursue new adventures. Matthew has a degree in Environmental Studies and 10 years of experience cooking in fine dining restaurants. Giana has a degree in Nutrition, Food Systems and studied Permaculture Design. Combined, their unique backgrounds give them the diverse skills, passion and work ethic to operate their 14-acre organic farm. Farming mostly for wholesale markets, grocery stores and restaurants, The Crows grow a wide selection of fresh culinary herbs, chicories, fennel, tomatoes, salad mixes, cabbage and winter squash.
