From Charleston, West Virginia to Charleston, South Carolina, my journey wasn't just a leap of faith – it was a testament to hard work and determination. At 21, I took the plunge into entrepreneurship, starting with my first business, Sweet Jesus Kettle Corn and hustling at the Charleston City Market.
But it wasn't easy. There were long hours, setbacks, and moments of doubt. Yet, fueled by passion and driven by a desire to give back to the community that embraced me, I pressed on.
The idea for a pumpkin patch was born from a deep desire to create something meaningful. A place where families could gather, connect, and experience the magic of the season in a southern city (where pumpkins rarely grow) that I experienced living in West Virginia. It took years of planning, preparation, and endless dedication to turn that dream into reality.
Today, as our pumpkin patch and Christmas tree lot stand as pillars of the community, it's a reminder of the countless hours of hard work and sacrifice that went into making it happen. But more than that, it's a testament to the power of perseverance and the joy that comes from seeing dreams come to fruition.
So when you visit Dreaming Farms, know that behind every pumpkin and every tree is a story of resilience, passion, and unwavering commitment. Join us as we celebrate the fruits of hard work and continue to spread joy, one harvest and one holiday season at a time.
