Microgreens.

We've been growing a business. At first I didn't really take it seriously. I mean, I've been playing in the dirt for years, and while I've gotten big results for myself, the idea that we could provide for others felt kind of out-there. But we all talked (myself, Jeff,...

Tonight.

Tonight, I threw a bunch of vegetables and rice in a pot, with homemade venison stock and whey and fresh herbs that I harvested from underneath a blanket of wet maple leaves.

Past and Present

I haven't been able to write as frequently as I would like. The concussion, in addition to my computer being really finnicky and breaking several times in the past couple of months, has me throwing my hands up about it most of the time. But, I realized earlier today...

Can I just talk about food?

It's so good around here lately- it's bordering on a religious experience for me. Seriously. So much of why I do what I do and why I believe what I believe is all about FOOD. This is not a surprise to many of you, but it occasionally creeps up...
