\"Jeanne<\/a><\/p>\n

My name is Jeanne. \u00a0 I am from Qu\u00e9bec and I have been working on organic farms for the past two years.<\/div>\n
I have always been attracted to animals and the country since I was a child. \u00a0 I look forward to learning how to work with draft horses and I\u00a0hope some day to start a horse powered CSA farm of my own.\u00a0\u00a0 I love honeybees, canning food, and I am also a pretty good knitter.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"karen<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
My name is Karen, and I grew up outside of Lindsay, Ontario. Jessica and I have been friends
\nsince kindergarten and I\u2019ve spent my life on or around farms. I have years of horse experience riding
\nand also spent a couple years driving carriages and sleighs at Deerhurst Resort in Huntsville, Ontario. My
\nlovely mare Tess also lives here at Lunar Rhythm Gardens! I have a diploma in International Trade and
\nhave spent the last three years or so living in Mexico and Costa Rica, teaching English in a kindergarten
\nand a grade school respectively. I even lived on a small farm in Costa Rica; it was so neat learning how
\npeople farm in different parts of the world.<\/p>\n

In addition to horses, I also enjoy snowboarding, surfing, reading, learning languages, and spending time
\nwith my cool Mexican rescue dog, Salty. He will be around the garden this summer as well!<\/p>\n

This year, I hope to learn as much as I can about everything I can. Not to mention getting to spend the
\nsummer with one of my best and oldest friends! I also look forward to growing (and eating!) some
\ndelicious food this season. Can\u2019t wait to meet you all!<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
\"Margie<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
My name is Margie.\u00a0 I am a wife and mother of 2 wonderful kids, who all started out as CSA members of Jessica’s in 2011.\u00a0 We have come such a long way since then, learning so much about the way our food is produced, and how important it is to choose local, fresh produce, eggs and meat.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I went to school at the University of Guelph, and have a Masters in Food Safety and Quality Assurance – and some might ask how this path lead me to work on a farm?\u00a0 Well,\u00a0 I had my children after I started my Masters, and at once it became important to me to raise my children to be environmentally aware, and to live a sustainable lifestyle.\u00a0 When we moved to the Oshawa area in 2008, and I realized I would not be satisfied working in my area of training – that I needed to be doing something that made me feel good, helped the environment,\u00a0 and made a statement about\u00a0 how I choose to live my life.\u00a0 So here I am – and I am so happy to be here!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
My goal is to learn about farming, since I had no farming experience prior to this.\u00a0 Hopefully, I will be able to put all that sciency stuff to use while I am here!\u00a0 I have a passion for doing things from scratch (another reason why I ended up working here), including fermenting foods, cooking tasty and healthy meals, as well as sewing and knitting.\u00a0 Looking forward to working with everyone and meeting all the CSA members this summer!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
