Farm Discovery at Live Earth is a nonprofit organization working in the Pajaro Valley community to empower youth and families to build and sustain healthy food, farming, social and natural systems. Our home, Live Earth Farm, is a 150 acre patchwork of working organic farm, riparian corridor, oak and redwood forest in the Pajaro Valley of Santa Cruz County, California. We believe that we can transform personal and community health and improve our impact on earth by building and sustaining collaborative agricultural, ecological and social systems. We believe that communities equipped with knowledge and the skills of inquiry can transform food, farming and natural systems for the better.

I was a technology professional in silicon valley for over 25 years so I know first hand about the challenges of balancing a busy work life and trying to consistently prepare quality nourishing meals for my family. Since I absolutely love to eat, love to cook and love to share my knowledge and food creations, I took the leap and founded “In Your Kitchen” personal chef service. I am honored to be a graduate of the School of Natural Cookery in Boulder Colorado where I worked with internationally acclaimed plant based chefs who shared their passions and secrets of making vegan plant based food come alive. In Your Kitchen was a whole food, plant based personal chef service with a mission to simplify my clients day to day by filling the refrigerator with custom, ready to eat, 100% whole food plant based meals.
