Adam Bunker
Operations Manager & Director of Fancy Words
Adam joined Papa Joe’s Produce in 2019 with no experience in plants. Since then, they have grown Papa Joe’s from a small hobby greenhouse to one of the leading year-round regional lettuce producers, with a focus on hydroponic growing.
Papa Joe’s now operates three greenhouses with a team of more than 10 employees and regular volunteers. He loves working with his team to develop innovative solutions to greenhouse production in Wyoming.
He is a strong proponent of local foods, and has served as the President of the Wyoming Food Coalition since 2020. Adam lives in Sheridan with his wife and three children.
