Samantha earned her BA in Environmental Studies from Oberlin College and joined our staff in 2001, doing stints in the gardens, orchards and nursery. As Nursery and Vineyard Manager, Sam nurtures our olive trees through their various stages of growth and maintains our newly-planted 7 acres of vines. She appreciates the growth opportunities at McEvoy and proudly upholds our commitment to diverse and sustainable agriculture. Samantha has written comprehensively about numerous olive tree and orchard care and management topics; we hope you will find the answers to any questions you may have on those subjects here.
