Ami Gignac was once an executive in the corporate world and now she’s the chief executive of her own green business. Gignac and Tim Fox are the owner operators of Breakneck Acres, a certified organic farm in Ravenna, Ohio. In this CNNMoney video, Gignac shares the story of Breakneck Acres with us, including the farm’s mission “to feed the local community with fresh, affordable produce.”
