Founder of Versant Strategies

The Versant team thanks former House Appropriations Chair and Founder John Barley.

Beyond his service within state government, Barley was a frequent deliverer of political commentary on TV. He is also well known as the founder of Star Rock Farms in 1963, which has grown to become Pennsylvania’s largest multi-enterprise farming operation.
