Becky Mahon is farmer near Owingsville in Bath County who farms approximately 50-acres.  Ms. Mahon is a native of Bath County who has been farming all of her life.  Currently her primary products are a variety of vegetables which she sells at the Bath County and neighboring farmer’s markets.  There is no one in the Bath County region that is producing maple syrup or sorghum and Ms. Mahon feels like there is a good opportunity to add these items to her product mix.  The farm has adequate maple trees and her husband and three children will help with the effort.  The $7,500 SOAR Farm loan will be used to purchase maple syrup production equipment and convert a portion of a barn into a sugar house.
