CURRENT MISSION

"All the world is, in fact, a mosaic of little places." - Wendell Berry

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Lexington, VA, a small southern town with all sorts of wonderful folks. I went to Philadelphia for school looking for diversity and adventure and spent four years studying Economics, Real Estate, and Accounting. I enjoy these disciplines greatly, even though they are so often abstracted from the joys and sufferings of real people. I've found farming to be just as challenging and much less abstract.

I have thruhiked the Appalachian (2013) and Pacific Crest (2015) trails and now am in Baltimore, MD working towards starting a neighborhood bakery.

PHILOSOPHY

People are fascinating.
