This includes canning and home food preservation, beekeeping, backyard chicken flock husbandry, Kratky hydroponics, growing microgreens and others. These take place in various settings like demonstration kitchens, various community libraries, and technical colleges. I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others in a relaxed and interactive setting.

I have a line of small batch, handcrafted foods and non-food items for sale at local Farmer’s Markets and my road stand.  Additionally I have a few offerings that I make and label for Stefano’s SloFood Market (731 Pennsylvania Ave, Sheboygan).

I avidly tinker, enjoy spending time in my kitchen, and can often be found talking to chickens in my garden.  I enjoy finding ways to live a little bit more sustainably through practical and simply means saving money, energy and worry.
