Zephrine Hanson
Zephrine Hanson spent 8 years as a Air Force photojournalist and has a 20 year background in media communications and public relations. After completing a life changing therapeutic farm program for veterans in 2017, Zephrine, her husband and 3 children pivoted into the Colorado agricultural community creating Hampden Farms, a suburban farm offering sustainable farming solutions, organic production and small-batch artisanal products made from natural ingredients lovingly grown and conscientiously sourced. From seed to sale, we promote creativity and innovation across producers and providers while encouraging conscious consumption in wholesome products that are simply good for your mind, body and soul.
The primary goal for Hampden Farms is to strengthen the local food system’s capacity through diverse retail and wholesale products preserved and crafted from local growers and farmers- creating year-round revenue sources and avoiding lost income. Additionally Hampden Farms amplifies and supports the work of local community organizations who advocate for food equity, and community-wealth building.
