Goals, Values, Vision
I recently retired from the Army after 21 years of service. After retirement, I immediately began working in telecommunications. Over the past year, I’ve been a student in culinary school, learning more about food and how to make it even better. Now, I’m ready to start growing and farming food that everyone can enjoy both seasonally and year round. My goal is to deepen my understanding of farming so I can help make farm to table with local yields a reality for everyone in the community.
