Our Team

Meet the people who work to make AgriFacture everything that it is.

Leaving a successful career in the Nuclear Industry, Ed began a new career investing in private technology companies. In 2008, Ed underwrote the development of the principal research that constitutes AgriFacture today.

Christine earned a Communications degree from UNC Chapel Hill and began her career at TV stations across NC. In 2008, she and her husband David began the research and testing that was later to become known as AgriFacture.

Lori is an expert in finance and has a Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems from Florida International University. Lori manages financial operations of AgriFacture USA and oversees the development of AgriFacture properties.

Juan’s work as an Industrial Control Systems engineer keeps him immersed in automation processes and systems. His desire is to create and design a better world through better engineering practices.

Dean earned a degree from the University of Florida before enjoying a long career as an audio engineer for touring bands as well as TV. Dean continues to stay busy and hone his technical skills as AgriFacture’s go-to guy for marketing and sales.

An NC native, after high school Sarah decided to pursue a degree in nursing at a local college. After realizing nursing wasn’t the right fit, she joined the AgriFacture team in 2018, and has climbed her way to the top of the ladder with her innovative techniques in mushroom growing and her unwavering dedication to the business.

Mark began his career as a Scientific Programmer with Loral Data Systems but moved into commercial automation. Mark has OEM’ed his ECS software to AgriFacture International Ltd to be the company’s core automation operating software.

With her agricultural and horticultural experience from UNC Chapel Hill, Marla brings an abundance of experience and enthusiasm to our AgriFacture family. Never one to shy away from a difficult day’s work, she finds joy and genuine happiness in our process of growing (and eating) the company products.

Brian spent much of his early life in South Korea and was the son of missionary parents. He is also a USMC veteran! Brian is well adapted in his artistic talent and has earned an education in graphic design. His ability to think things through and solve problems makes him a key member of our AgriFacture team.

While obtaining her education in Animal and Environmental science at Lees-McRae College, Haley has always had a passion for conserving the environment. She lived abroad in Tanzania where she worked with a team to help teach and learn from locals about conservation and human-wildlife conflict. She joined our team in 2020 and is eager to learn more about sustainable agriculture whilst trying to convince the CEO to rescue as many animals as possible.

After earning an education in business at NCCU, T.J. spent almost five years as a head chef for a local soul food restaurant. He recently developed an interest in machining and engineering and works closely with our CEO here at AgriFacture. He is a quick learner and is quite handy around the property.

Originally from upstate NY, Tim has spent the last eighteen years as a resident of Western North Carolina. After many years in the restaurant industry, Tim decided he wanted to switch to carpentry. He plays a vital role on the AgriFacture property and is always working on constructing and perfecting any task thrown at him. Outside of work, Tim enjoys mountain biking, hiking, and kayaking.

Adrian studied at Appalachian State University and directed sports broadcasts until the end of his undergraduate degree. Adrian currently manages AgriFacture’s environmental control systems to maintain ideal conditions for AgriFacture’s high standard for quality products.

In Memoriam

Over a decade ago, Ed McCammon and David Scranton founded AgriFacture to solve the Water, Energy, and Agriculture crises facing our planet. They began research and testing in David’s basement, and the discoveries they made would go on to become the foundation of what AgriFacture is today. After David’s passing in 2017, his wife Christine stepped in as President to continue AgriFacture’s mission, and his daughter Catherine has been an Operations intern for AgriFacture for several summers.

David will always be a part of our AgriFacture family.

The new age of agricultural production and processing is here.

At AgriFacture, we no longer want to “ADAPT” technology to agriculture – we want to “REPLACE” 10 thousand years of agriculture practices with designs and methodologies that can provide commodity level volumes to the market at costs that are below traditional soil based practices.

Don’t get left behind – follow us on social media to stay up to date on all of the groundbreaking things happening at Agrifacture, and to join the conversation.
