I live in Beautiful northern Michigan with my wife Lydia. I have 2 daughters, ages 27 and 30.I have been involved for many years with the organic and local food movement. I served on the board of the first CSA farm in Michigan, and on the board of the largest natural food co-op (Oryana) in the midwest. I grow microgreens and wheatgrass, and make raw dehydrated health bars, which I sell at farmers' markets. I am very interested in nutritional wellness, and have visited some of the top nutritional wellness centers, including Hippocrates Health Institute, the Ann Wigmore Institute, and Creative Health Institute. I am interested in renewable energy, sustainable development, energy efficient construction, intentional communities, indoor organic growing, healthy raw food preparation, dehydrating, fermenting, and smoothie making. I have extensive remodeling experience, and am happy to give advice on any type of construction or remodel.
