Food as Medicine, Rooted in Decades of Experience

Since young adulthood I’ve been a farmers market junkie, foodie, and even a regenerative farmer at Coral Tree Farm— experimenting with food trends, seasonal and wild foods, and following my palette into endless culinary adventures and research wormholes. I’ve navigated nutrition- based recoveries from leaky gut, arthritis, food sensitivities, binge eating disorder, post‑colon surgery, chronic urinary tract infections, candida and SIBO, to skin problems. I am an avid student of root-cause-based functional medicine, a die-hard fan and follower of Functional Medicine Doctor Mark Hyman, and know in my gut that by healing ourselves, we heal our planet.

Eating Well is Good Housekeeping for you and the entire planet

Putting the highest quality ingredients into your meals means sourcing from the highest quality farms. For Farmecopia, this is the essence of the regenerative organic food movement-- now an official food label certification. Not only do regenerative farming practices replenish and build up the soil to be robust and rich, but they protect ecosystems from poisonous chemicals, keep watersheds healthy, and are foundational for planetary wellbeing.

In turn, Regeneratively organic foods are better for the body because they are richer in bioavailable vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants while carrying fewer pesticide residues and harmful contaminants.

For this reason, the way you treat yourself is the way you treat the world. Isn't it great to be kind? We are beyond excited to provide tools, resources, recipes, and insights to support your path to a more splendid culinary life.

I saved over $2000 by becoming a member and averted testing ad hoc and endless consultations.
