Our Team
-
Patrick Kelly
Hey. I try to tell myself that I am the CEO, but if you ask any of the staff, they will probably just laugh, unless I bribe them. I run the day-to-day operations like answering emails, phone calls, making sure we are ready for all the events, working on my LONG to do list, to chasing around our 1 year old. You will find me and Asher working on the farm during the week and giving orders on the weekends. Although this is a lot of work, and is technically my job, I love it so much that it doesn’t feel like one.

Katelyn James
Hey y’all, my name is Katelyn. I have always been an animal lover, but never in a million years would I had guessed I would own a farm. But when you live in a farmhouse, you must have a few animals. :) It brings me so much joy to witness kids light up when they see the animals. You can usually find me somewhere on the farm holding an animal in one arm and Asher in the other. If I’m not on the farm, I am working my real job as a nurse manager.

Jackson Stalnaker
Jackson is the oldest son. He is the reason the PSP first got goats. He now loves to ride horses around the farm. Unless his parents make him, you probably won’t see Jackson on the farm unless it is to get Simplee Boba and then he goes back to the video games.
-
Kaleb Stalnaker
Kaleb is the middle child. He is hoping to build a chicken empire and sell eggs and baby chicks. He enjoys trying out all the new attractions on the farm. You can usually find him playing outside with friends or building his next project.
-
Lina Steffy
Lina is our farmhand and Jane-of-all-trades. She is passionate about connecting families with farm life and enjoys learning and teaching traditional skills. You'll often find her on the farm in a pair of overalls, working with the animals or engaging visitors with farm facts.

Scott Kimball
Scott has been with PSP since day one. Scott is the go-to carpenter, as well as our farrier. You will find him on the farm easily because his dog spook will be right beside him.

Rowland Cropper
On the farm I am better known as Papa. During farm days I am usually driving the tractor or the four-wheeler pulling the cow train. The other times, I help Patrick with the day-to-day operations, as well as mobile events. I love seeing the kids enjoy the farm. You betcha that is my favorite. If I am not on the farm, is I am riding my Harley around town with my wife, Lynn.

Lynn Cropper
Hi, I am Mrs. Lynn. I wear many hats on the farm- animal caretaker, babysitter, tour guide, gate opener, and more. I love teaching kids about the animals. On the farm you will find me holding and snuggling with all the babies. When not on the farm, I am selling Scentsy, planting flowers, or riding the Harley with Papa.
-
Sinsa Blue
Sinsa is a man of little words, but he is one of the hardest working kids we know. Sinsa is a senior and hopes to go to trade school next year. He is normally driving the cow train or running around doing a little bit of everything. He has been practicing backing up the trailer and will soon be hitting the road for mobile parties!

Daniel Bost
Besides being Patrick’s 1st cousin, I am the farm fabricator, fixer, and junk organizer. When Katelyn comes up with a new idea, I am the one tasked to make it come to life. When I am not here running the welder, you can find me pulling for the Tarheels and spending time with my wife and two daughters.
-
Lane Helton
Hey, I have many jobs on the farm. The job I work the hardest at is annoying Patrick. When I am not pushing Patricks’ buttons, I am doing pony rides or working on projects at the farm. Outside of the farm I love spending time with my fiancé and calling Patrick to annoy him.
-
Logan Hickman
Hey, I am Logan. I am one of the first faces to greet you at Family Farm Days. I manage the tickets and online orders. Sometimes I float around the farm or ride along for mobile events. I love working for the Pint Sized Pasture because it gives me the opportunity to meet new people. You can find me at the front gate or on the soccer field.
-
Dalton Henry
I originally came to the farm to volunteer but was quickly scooped up and asked to join the team. I love taking the animals on the road and educating people about the animals. When not hauling animals or roping cows, you will find me at the fire department or at home with my family.

Andy Ricchini
Howdy, I’m Andy. You’ll find me on the farm camping out in my RV from time to time. I’m an event planner and website designer. I love helping behind the scenes at the farm!
