Today's guest on the podcast is Jared Pickard. Jared and his wife Velisa have one of the only biodynamic farms in the country. Be Here Farm + Nature is a Demeter Certified Biodynamic farm located at 2200' elevation on the peak of Spring Mountain, Sonoma, CA, just outside the town of Saint Helena. WThey grow over 300 unique varieties of fruits, vegetables, herbs and flowers which are utilized in their two product lines: artisanal food products and holistic skincare. Jared shares how his journey has taken him from Wall Street to farming and occasionally making his own cheese. He discusses how observing his older brother drop 100 lbs with a Chek Practitioner not only got Jared curious, but changed the trajectory of his life. We talk about work, Following your passion, being a beginner, working with your spouse, and how sometimes working "in " is more important depending on what's happening in your life than working "out". There's something really unique and special about an East Coast Wall Street guy who talks farming without even plowing the ground.
