About Us
From Then...
Our farmland north of Edwardsville has now been carried through four generations. This aerial shot from 1968 displays the farm at its height of production with diversified livestock and row-cropping.
To Now...
In 2025, with revitalized passion, Jacob and Adamm cultivated new plots on the family farm to grow fresh vegetables for InterRooted Farms. We are committed to sustainable farming practices of no-till, drip irrigation, organic composting, and never using synthetic chemical sprays or fertilizers.
Jacob Paul, Co-Owner
Growing up near his fourth-generation family farm, Jacob has always held passions for the natural world, gardening, and land stewardship. These passions led him to obtain a B.S. in Animal Sciences from the University of Missouri and, later, an M.S. in Horticulture & Human Health from Colorado State University.
Studying how sutainable, local agriculture can lead the way to improve public health, Jacob was inspired to scale-up his vegetable production and "grow" InterRooted Farms.
Adamm Hockman, Co-Owner
Though new to the agricultural world, Adamm understands the importance of local food to foster food security and resilient communities.
He obtained a B.S. in Computer Science and Mathematics and an M.S. in Mathematics from the University of Miami (FL). His logistically-minded brain ensures InterRooted runs smoothly, from vendor relations to doorstep delivery.
