Doug & Norma
It was in the early nineties when Doug, a recently laid off pilot, came to Eckert's seeking employment. With his love of machinery, he was employed as a tractor driver during the pick-your-own season. His fall employment went so well the farm continued to employ Doug for various year-round tasks. It was during this time that Doug began to notice Norma, a woman f
rom the accounting department. He finally got his nerve to ask her out and she pushed him off on another fellow employee, Dana! Luckily, Dana and Doug didn't work out, and Norma finally agreed to go out with him. She must of realized what she was missing, because the couple married in 1994. Doug is back flying around the world, while Norma is still crunching numbers at Eckert's, but the love that grew on the farm is as fresh as it was 16 years ago.

Phil & Emily
You never know when it's going to happen, and either did Phil and Emily. Phil, a member of the accounting department, thought he was going to just another Eckert's holiday party at the Turkey Hill Grange. Emily, the daughter of an Eckert's employee, was soon to catch Phil's eye that cold night in December. Their first date was a double date with Chris and Angie Eckert. The chemistry between Phil and Emily was so strong that Angie said, "It made me and Chris feel like an old married couple." Mind you, that Chris and Angie were only newlyweds. It was at that point, that Angie new it was a love connection. Phil and Emily walked down the aisle of matrimony in 2000. A decade later, Phil is now the Chief Fiancial Officer of Eckert's, while Emily is a literature Phd, and the two of them are the proud parents of an adorable 16 month old daughter, Caroline. Oh, the buds that blossom from love!
