Kelly Caisse

Kelly, a UCONN graduate and former Peace Corp volunteer, is the owner of KDCROP Farms in Chaplin, CT, a vegetable, herb, fruit, starter plant, and egg farm. The farm is family run and women-owned. They use organic, non-chemical, no-till techniques to grow their produce, reduce carbon footprint by mostly using hand tools, and keep the soil happy! KDCROP Farms also produces a line of value-added relishes, pickles, jams, chutney, and salsas that are farm-raised, handmade, and naturally grown for the garden fresh, farm-to-table experience. They also run a weekly CSA (community supported agriculture). Kelly has also written a book about her experience opening KDCROP Farms, Your Life on Fire.
