Wood Nettle Farm’s Story

Food with Benefits!

"Sowing the liberating seeds of sovereignty, sustainability and re-connection through co-creative food, farm and nature experiences."

After nine years of farming on an eco-diverse, off-grid farm, I relocated to a home in the heart of a certified organic farm north of Kingston at the end of April 2017. I no longer raise at-risk breeds of poultry, pork and cattle, and still get to enjoy the presence of farm animals around me that are pastured and free-ranged on this third-generation farm. I watch the antics of the teenager Berkshires in their paddock with deep satisfaction as I write this.

For the past fifteen years or so, I kept being drawn into the meadows, wetlands and woods to observe, discover and forage. Here is where I feel most connected to the stream of life and all that is. I become filled with wonder and awe, and my innate curiosity flows. As I have followed the ways of nature calling me, I have simultaneously done some inner work (deep diving) to uncover what it is that I have to offer the world. I can certainly grow, forage and prepare foods for sale at the farm gate and farmer’s market – and do this with great gratification. And yet, there is something beyond this that I am feeling compelled to offer. It has grown out of the question: What would it take to help people gain sovereignty over their own foods and to build connectivity with nature and community?
