Goals, Values, Vision
I worked with MDARD to help create a plan for their Regenerative Agriculture Demonstration Farm at the VFW National Home. Currently working for the Kent Conservation District as an Agriculture Technician. Looking to gain experience working with livestock to build soil and ecosystem health to create a foundation for independence and expertise.
My Goal is to be an Agriculture Professional with my own operation to build experience, credibility and economic independence while doing work to grow the regenerative Agriculture movement.
