Anyone who knows us understands our connection to the Earth, and to the bounty it provides. We are truly fortunate.
Lene grew up on a farm in Jutland, Denmark, spending many years in her dad’s garden. In fact, her very first summer job was picking strawberries!
They grew much of what they ate, so “Farm to Table” was really just “what’s for dinner.”
I grew up in the green havens of upstate New York, lost in my mom’s tomato garden for much of the summer. The smell of fresh-turned earth — and the joy of knowing that if I took care of it, it would take care of me — became foundational to how I see the world and my community.
How could I have dreamed that nearly 4,000 miles away, a beautiful young Danish girl was learning to see the world the same way… she at her father’s elbow, me at my mother’s… and that decades later we would be so far from home, growing something of our own. In our own little corner of the world.
Here in Los Angeles.
Take a minute to appreciate and support the people who spend their lives close to the soil — growing the incredible food we eat and preserving the land as their parents and grandparents did before them. Take an hour to walk through a forest or visit a park. Then go plant something yourself and start your own growth journey. 🌱
We look forward to seeing you all soon, watch this space for updates.
