Welcome!

Marc James agricultural and horticultural journey began in 2004 while working as a Farm Tech at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore. Upon receiving his Master’s in Food Microbiology, Marc spent time in Belize learning Ancient Mayan and Mennonite farming methods.

Experienced in crop production and animal husbandry, Marc brings a tried and true approach to organic growing methods, irrigation and pest management strategies through his exposure to farms around the globe.

In 2007, Marc founded Higher Harvest, where he helps build sustainable communities, one garden at a time. Additionally, for over 10 years, he volunteered time and knowledge to marginalized communities in Baltimore City and Washington, DC to support various church food banks.

Marc loves cooking, Go-Go and Reggae music, as well as, live theater and comedy.
