Farming has taught me so much about myself and the natural world around me. It has also instigated so many wonderful human connections in my life.

Earlier this year I got the opportunity to sit down with my good friend to talk about organic farming on the California central coast. Please go check out our conversation on the podcast.

Today felt like we made it to the big league…
The Santa Monica Wednesday farmers market is a retail venue coveted by any and all California producers. It’s a market that I have watched from a distance for over a decade. The energy is truly frenetic. Once 6:30AM rolls around, you better be ready to offload your product, present it properly, and prepare for the barrage of restaurateurs, wholesalers, and early birds. The interactions are quick and intentional. Everyone is vying for their prerogative to acquire that which is most in season or exclusive. It’s a beautiful thing to watch…and it’s an even more beautiful thing to be a part of. Thank you for your confidence in our farm. Thank you Santa Monica for your support. We are looking forward to becoming an integral part of the community!

Lil’ haircut…

Pruning out greenhouse tomatoes helps increase airflow below the plant canopy, which reduces the ambient humidity near the plants root zone. This in turn helps mitigate the potential for powdery mildew, botrytis, and even blight. Happy plant environment = happy tomatoes. Who else is looking forward to tomato season?! 🍅 🍅

I’m super excited and grateful to announce our entry into the . Today we attended the for our first Saturday and it was a beautiful thing. A huge thank you to the Santa Monica community for supporting local and organic…you guys rock! And a heartfelt thank you to the managers and employees that make the what it is. It takes an army.

Friends, keep aiming upward. Hard work really does pay off. And it may not look linear…and that’s ok. All I know is that when I work hard for something, it changes my perspective of what “hard” means to me. And then I realize that my perspective is often times what dictates my reality. Life seems to get easier in a weird way as the challenges surmount; but only if we learn to navigate them.

An ever changing perspective encourages an ever growing reality. Keep aiming upward! 🙃💚
