1. Inspiring a conservation ethic through food and agriculture.

Vermont Farm Tours is a culinary tour company dedicated to place-based food education.
I strive to promote local food and sustainable agriculture by educating people from diverse backgrounds about the hands and places that produce our food. Vermont Farm Tours supports a regional food system by partnering with local small businesses, farmers, and artisanal producers.
Principals:
1. Diverse agricultural communities are sustainable communities.
2. Place-based sensory education creates a connection to the land, and a connection to the land inspires a conservation ethic.
Mentoring Expertise Offered:
1. Mentoring: creating mutually beneficial--and fun--relationships, as well as the infrastructure to support and inform those mentoring relationships
2. Small business startup (most familiar with LLC)
3. Creating diverse and inclusive neighborhood organizations
4. Gardening (small farming to a lesser extent) and food systems
