The Greater Odenville Chamber of Commerce held its October Chamber Meeting on Monday, October 20, 2025, featuring guest speaker David Howard, owner of Howard Family Farm. Members and guests enjoyed a delicious lunch catered by Butts To Go Moody, featuring a hearty and flavorful potato bar that was a hit with all attendees.

David Howard shared an inspiring and personal presentation about his lifelong passion for farming and entrepreneurship. From a young age, Howard dreamed of becoming a Christmas tree farmer—a goal that he pursued with vision, dedication, and creativity. His professional journey also led him into a successful real estate career, which became an integral part of his growth as a business leader and community builder.

Howard’s story of developing Howard Family Farm—a thriving local destination in Moody—resonated deeply with chamber members. What began as a dream has evolved into a family-centered farm that serves as a place to build community, inspire a love of farming, and create lasting memories through seasonal attractions such as the pumpkin patch, Christmas trees, and community events throughout the year.

The Chamber expressed appreciation to David Howard for sharing his entrepreneurial insights and to Butts To Go Moody for providing a wonderful lunch.

The Greater Odenville Chamber of Commerce continues to host monthly meetings offering valuable networking opportunities, engaging guest speakers, and community updates. The next meeting is scheduled for Monday, November 10.
