My journey into the culinary world began with my grandparents. Everything that I know, about food, how to grow it, how to hunt, fish, and prepare it to sustain myself came from my grandparents. My Grandmother was a classically trained chef and worked as a executive chef for two governors of my home state of Alabama. I am a classically trained soil scientist with 30 years of experience in urban agriculture, an educator, author, lecturer and photographer, where my background and experience in promoting sustainable food choices lends an unparalleled air of precision and sophistication. I have also 15 years of experience working for my Grandmother's catering business. I am Insured and I am also a Certified Trust20 Food Handler.
