Meet Carrie & Chris

Chris and Carrie began the Space Coast Farmers Market to bring farmers to the table. They saw a need to grow a quality market/forum for farmers, backyard growers, cottage bakers, plant people, local producers, and artisans to sell to provide for their families and consumers to buy fresh healthy foods and goods.

Chris was born in Brevard County, raised in Cocoa, and lives in Satellite Beach with his wife Carrie who moved to Brevard in 1980 and was raised in Satellite Beach. Both put God and their family first and have three adult daughters and two adult sons. They enjoy kayaking, traveling, camping, lighthouse hunting, and family gatherings.

Chris has worked as an Automotive Technology teacher at a local High School since 2020 and has prior teaching experience at the local community college and 35 years of working in the automotive repair industry. He enjoys helping people, and fixing cars and has a heart for serving others. Carrie is a local business owner of a child-placing agency. She works in social services, loves personal organizing, and exploring new places and challenges.
