Starting a Career You Love with Trevor & Brayton Spear

Trevor and Brayton Spear own and operate Nanue's Farm in Raleigh, NC. Trevor recently took a step back from his contracting business to do something he really loves: farm. Brayton, a recent high school graduate, knew college wasn't the route he wanted to take. Instead, he wanted to work with his hands and grow something tangible. Together the father-son duo is building a successful container farming business selling their produce to restaurants, farmers' markets, and direct-to-consumer. Thanks to our friends at Freight Farms for featuring us.
