Kit Carson TEAm
Jon Lopez
Founder & CEO
Combined with his huge entrepreneurial spirit, Jon has an extensive background in bringing big-picture dreams into reality and leading teams to success.
After successfully leading the development of a “glamping” project off the Manhattan coast on Governor’s Island, he decided to venture off on a 5-month road trip from Banff to Baja. His intention was to find a new, challenging project he could claim as his own. Thus, Kit Carson Farms was born!
Outside of Kit Carson Farms, Jon loves playing with Charlie, rock climbing, traveling, spending time with his niece & nephew, and working with his hands on any multitude of projects around the house or farm.
Dan Rex
Grower
Dan has helped build Kit Carson Farms from Day 1. He helps with a multitude of tasks around the farm and takes charge of the health and growth of the hemp plants. His passion for the plants is obvious in the care he puts in and the effort he puts towards expanding his knowledge of growing.
Outside of Kit Carson Farms, Dan loves rock climbing, hiking (completed the AT in 2012!), and is studying to become an Occupational Therapist.
Ali Fifer
Operations and Project Manager
Someone has to keep the guys in line. Ali does a lot of the behind-the-scenes coordinating, scheduling, budgeting, and marketing to make sure we’re running smoothly.
Outside of Kit Carson Farms, you can find her taking Charlie for hikes & trail runs, reading, or working with her nutrition clients.
Charlie
Head of People & Culture, Security
Charlie is in charge of keeping morale high and making sure we take appropriate breaks for fun. He’s also head of security, alerting us at all hours of any potential threats.
Sometimes he even helps dig trenches & keeps the grasshoppers at bay in the outdoor field.
When he’s not hard at work, you can find him chasing the farm cats around or basking in the Sun.
