Joe Schott is the Farm and Garden Manager at Landis Valley Village & Farm Museum. The Heirloom Seed Project at the museum is responsible for collecting and preserving seeds that the Pennsylvania Germans grew in southeastern Pennsylvania prior to 1940. These seeds are all open pollinated and can produce the same crop every year. Joe also oversees the care of eight draft horses, heritage Lineback cattle, numerous sheep, chickens, and pigs, with the help of several volunteers and staff. Joe has been continuously farming for 40 years on the same farm as his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather before him. He currently farms 80 acres with 80+ sheep, pasture, and hay.
