Description:
Spent 7 years of my childhood on a small family farm in Eastern, Wa. I have a degrees in Conservation Management, and Environmental Regulation and have developed a passion for sustainable agriculture and education. I am a member of the North America Environmental Education Association. Currently, I am looking for land in Western Washington to farm. This would include vegetables, fruit, and livestock. My goal would be to also host educational tours or small programs for kids. Additionally, I’d like to have a program where kids, particularly those disenfranchised, or with disabilities, to help with sowing and harvesting of some of the crops and to be able to sell those at a local farmer’s market. I worked with a similar program on an organic, family-owned farm in Spain, and was deeply moved by the impact this program had on the kids.
