I worked in the school system for many years as an instructional assistant and substitute teacher. I also taught yoga and wellness at the same time. Last year I started teaching for an organization that does field trip and nutrition programs directed at teaching children about the farm origins of their food, and the related subjects of nutrition and ecology. I have organically gardened for about 10 years growing some of my own food and belong to the organic garden club.
