About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a PhD student (wild bee ecology), retired tree-planter and farm writer. I cant seem to stay in one place very long, which has lead me to live/travel in various countries, and different parts of Canada. I am very passionate about the agri-foodsystem. I am also super interested in pollinators. I love photography and art! I love writing - mostly about the agri-foodsystem and ecological agriculture.
