Ever since I can remember I have been around farm animals and equipment.\u00a0 I was born on a small farm \"OLYMPUS<\/a>outside Calgary.\u00a0 I was fortunate to be able to know where my food came from, we milked goats, had chickens for eggs and raised cattle for meat.\u00a0 One of my fondest memories was planting a garden with my grandma, and cooking what we harvested.\u00a0 From grade one to eight I attended a Waldorf school.\u00a0 The curriculum of a Waldorf school has a focus on art, and hands on learning, \"IMG_0213\"<\/a>I still have the milking stool that I made in grade eight, and the hands-on skills that I learned during my time there are still central in my life.\u00a0 From grade ten to twelve I attended, a small (120 student) boarding school in rural Saskatchewan. I lived in the dormitory at there for all three years. It was here that I gained a passion for learning outside of the traditional classroom.\u00a0 One class that stands out for me was the outdoor education class.\u00a0 We were privileged enough to be able to go on a 5 day paddle trip through Northern Saskatchewan.<\/p>\n

After high school, I pursued my interest in cooking, and attended culinary school in Calgary.\u00a0 It was here that my eyes were opened to possibilities that \"DSCF0039\"<\/a>food has as a way to engage with a variety of people.\u00a0 From culinary school I venture out into the culinary industry where I worked at higher end hotels and restaurants.\u00a0 Traveling has been another way I have seen the value that food has as a way to share culture and create understanding.\u00a0\"OLYMPUS<\/a><\/p>\n
