about the farm
It all started with a book and a farmer.
The book? The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan. The Farmer? Joel Salatin.
Salatin came into my life as I was listening to The Omnivore's Dilemma back in 2006while cleaning houses to earn money during medical school. Pollan’s recount of Salatin -- how he farmed, how he lived, and how he treated the land -- rang true to my core. It transformed my relationship with food, farming, and mostly my relationship to the earth.
Every piece of my DNA said "YES, this is IT". And yet it has taken me all these years in between to find my voice, my heart, and my farm.
