My name is Ben. I'm a recently graduated farmer who's currently traveling after my last gig was up. I moved to Asheville from Texas to begin my new life in the mountains, and haven't looked back. I love foraging and wildcrafting medicines/foods as well as cultivating crops and raising animals within integrated systems that heal people and the land. Let’s connect over food, justice and healthy relationships to the land and one another.

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

I have 0 money but need 1 couch to stay on. I appreciate connecting with people of diverse backgrounds and experiences. I also try to spend as little time/energy in traditional money-based economies if I can help it!
