Antonio Nissi

My name is Antonio Nissi, I’m 20 years old. I do just about every job there is so let’s just say I’m a farmer. Our family founded Rocca Di Cambio Farm in 2021 after convincing my parents for years to move to Vermont and start a farm. It all started for me back when I was around 10 years old where I volunteered at a local community farm in Natick, Massachusetts and began to fall in love with farming while working my way up, becoming an apprentice and then employee.

At Natick Community Organic Farm we grew approximately 2 acres of organic vegetables, raised livestock, and every winter we boiled maple syrup for the surrounding communities to enjoy. Growing up on such a loving community farm opened my eyes to see the countless opportunities a family owned and operated regenerative farm could bring.

After years of convincing my father, who has been in the insurance business for over 40 years, and my mother, a stay at home mom who loved going to her weekly yoga and spin classes, it happened.

Rocca Di Cambio Farm was officially founded, named after our beautiful family village in Italy. The name Rocca Di Cambio, the “Fortress of exchange” which we found to not just have a family meaning but a name that allows for endless opportunities for generations to come.

My goal is simple. To be an example. To educate and show people it’s possible to heal the land and themselves WITHOUT using chemicals, fertilizers and drugs. While raising the best quality, most nutrient dense food possible and at the same time creating an ecosystem to farm in harmony with nature.

Aka. To show Monsanto and Big Pharma who’s boss. Everyday our farm gets closer and closer to this dream, slowly providing the community with some of the greatest products nature has to offer and building a foundation for future generations.
