The Walnut Hill Insurance Agency, formerly located at 282 Route 101 in Amherst, was founded in 1987 by Don Carper, Jr. and his son, Don Carper, III. Walnut Hill’s business model was simple, Carper, III said, operating on the idea that once the agency gained an insured, the best way to stay in business was to keep the customer happy. This practice led to referrals and growth that has carried the agency to 25 successful years in the insurance industry.
