Our Team

  • Matthew Haynes, founder & laborer

    When Matthew purchased West Meadowbrook Farm with his wife Bryna in 2021, he had a dream of making the land work for not just his family, but the community.

    Matthew is also the owner and president of La Gondola Providence and the cofounder of Providence Kayak Company. He lives at West Meadowbrook Farm with his wife, Bryna, and their three children.

  • Saro Crocker, farm manager & creative wizard

    Saro has been working on small scale organic vegetable and livestock farms for eight years and is excited for the opportunity to manage West Meadowbrook.

    They found work in agriculture almost by accident but now cannot imagine their life without it, and will rave about radicchio or soil health if given the chance. In the off season, they enjoy making soap and other crafts.

  • Bryna Haynes, the (former) city girl

    Bryna Haynes has always loved farm-fresh produce … and, with a green thumb nowhere in sight, it’s imperative that she stay far from the plants! Bryna is in charge of the farm’s marketing, online presence, and product sales.

    Bryna is also the founder and president of WorldChangers Media. She lives at West Meadowbrook Farm with her husband, Matthew, and their three children.
