Patrick Johnston lives in Brentwood where his family has been farming since 1923. He became a partner in Dwelley Family Farms in 2006 and grows both conventional and organic fruits and vegetables. When he’s not farming, Patrick likes to spend time with his wife, Amy, and two daughters, traveling, hiking, and relaxing at home.
Patrick has a degree from UC Davis in Sociology, Rhetoric and Communications. He served on the board of the Brentwood Agricultural Land Trust from 2009 until its merger with Central Valley Farmland Trust to form CFT. He believes it is important that everyone do their part to participate in something that benefits the community in the future.
