Do you prefer to grow indoors or outdoors, and why?

Outdoors. There is no replacement for being outside in the elements and getting your hands dirty.

Are you currently working on any cool projects?

Yes. I am Campaign Manager for a local mayoral campaign, and I am working with Farmers Footprint and JustOne Organics. Farmers Footprint is developing a regenerative farming model and marketing it to the masses through a docuseries on their website www.farmersfootprint.us. JustOne Organics gently dries different crops into nutritional food powders, and they have a model to “hire farmers” based on the volume of drying capacity at their gentle drying centres (GDC).

What is your favourite animal/insect?

Praying mantis. They make eye contact! I think they are little aliens.
