Jerry
Owner | Farm Manager
Jerry Mahoney has been a certified organic farmer on the Central Coast for over 25 years. His family has been farming in Santa Maria for four generations and Jerry loves what he does! He worked for eleven years as the Cal Poly organic farm manager, teaching future farmers the importance of sustainable organic farming practices. Now, he focuses on managing the Blosser Urban Garden farm that provides the majority of fruits and vegetables we use for our CSA, Farm Stand, online store and wholesale customers. Jerry's experience and pride for his work show through the quality produce him and his team deliver and his deep roots in the central coast coast farming community provide a vast network of  producers to call on when we need more than what the BUG farm yields.
