Plan
My partner and I are computer programmers by day, growers and tinkerers by night who love to build things and experiment. We love systems design and design thinking. We love the outdoors and want to farm full-time. We have a small 'urban farm' here in Atlanta and I have a small business selling foraged and cultivated mushrooms. We are big thinkers, voracious learners, and want to leave our legacy as a steward of the land we are on to the betterment of our environment and community.
