My life is about growing food, making food, building healing spaces and gardens, and running happy restaurants. But I also like shoes, reading, writing, learning new things, and talking about ideas. Check out my podcast Tomato Juice about books and restaurants, find tips for how to do stuff in the garden, read Good Dirt, my blog about things underneath things, or read published work.

To be of the Earth is to know
the restlessness of being a seed
the darkness of being planted
the struggle toward the light
the pain of growth into the light
the joy of bursting and bearing fruit
the love of being food for someone
the scattering of your seeds
the decay of the seasons
the mystery of death and
the miracle of birth.
—JOHN SOOS
the restlessness of the seed
