Local Food Overview

Here are some thoughts on that work and what I learned:

One of the critical issues facing our planet is ensuring that all people, regardless of background and means, have access to healthy food that’s raised in harmony with nature. Doing that kind of work in my economically-troubled but reviving-itself hometown turned out to be more meaningful to me than I could have imagined.

I integrated knowledge and skills from my technology development background, my experience cooking in fine dining restaurants, and my interdisciplinary “Sound & Perception” degree. More importantly, I became more effective at collaborating with small teams to achieve significant results – such as creating the documentary PolyCultures and sharing it with an estimated 10,000+ people via community screenings, film festivals, DVDs, and airings on PBS affiliates.
