Big Mahalo to Donna Maltz for an excellent presentation and demonstration on cultured vegetables!



Biography:

For over 30 years I have strived to be a socially responsible entrepreneur focused on producing and serving food that is good for people and the planet. In 1982 I was one of the first graduates from the Organic Farm Program at Evergreen State College. I then went on to start The Fresh Sourdough Express, the first natural foods bakery & café in Alaska, dedicated to serve local and organic food. In 1992 I brought the message of food responsibility to the national level and created and branded AH!LASKA, the first organic & fair trade cocoa and chocolate syrup company in the nation. The sale of AH!LASKA company, in 2000 sparked a new business, “A Memorable Experience,” an ecofriendly Bed & Breakfast and wedding services, where I performed over 100 wedding ceremonies and accommodated people from around the world.

I am currently a student at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, where I have been trained in more than one hundred dietary theories and studied a variety of practical lifestyle coaching methods. Drawing on all my experience and this knowledge, I specialize in coaching entrepreneurs and individuals choosing to make a change and help them to create a personalized “roadmap to health” that suits their unique body, lifestyle, preferences, and goals encompassing soil to soul solutions.
