Alternative Community Farmer -Consultant/ South Florida

I, like many of us these days struggle with the fact that our food sources and environment are making us sick......GMO', processed foods, hormones, and chemicals..I spend countless hours researching the effects of modern farming/ranching and its effects on the environment and our health and it is very unsettling... We simply must be moving collectively with greener practices not only for our own well being but for generations to come.....I found Tony's classes on the Event listing on this site and am overwhelmed by his passion to educate and make this world a better place. My husband and my son (12) came with me to the class yesterday reluctantly, but they came.I am so happy to say that along with Tony's extensive knowledge his style and grace totally captured everyones attention and curiosity... his class was exactly what my family needed...he explained in very simple terms what plants need to grow and survive and what our bodies need to live a happy and healthy lifestyle. Along with agriculture he explained ergonomics as well as the benefits of medicinal plants that we can grow ourselves. I want to reiterate how well the information was presented, with patients and love. Something this world can truly use more of....Our son struggles with some learning disabilities so along with theory he demonstrated through hands on learning in which any age can participate and learn from.... We plan on attending as many future classes as we can and with the knowledge gained from just one class will begin planning our organic garden and getting the soil prepared for the fall. He emphasized the importance of prepping and maintaining an organic garden including ways to do it that are basically self sustaining without harmful fertilizers and pesticides which in my opinion is paramount for living healthy..... Kudos to you Tony for enlightening my family and I. We are whole heartedly on board and with your help we can educate our community. You are a true blessing Tony, thank you for helping to lay the foundation upon which we will can GROW (pardon the pun) as a family and as a community. Celeste LaVergne Boca Raton

Kudos to you dear Celestte.Thanks to the appreciation and support.We all are one .One Earth and One Human Race.Our kids are the ones who look at us as Leaders by EXAMPLE.You set the right example by including your whole family in the learning process starting with a HANDS on Class right out in the GARDEN .I am so elevated by your enthusiasm and dedication to learn how to grow your own food to prepare a healthy and nutritious meal ,FREE from GMO and pesrticides ,to your family right from your backyard.I see more losing jobs by they turn the lemon on lemonade by being creative and go green growing their own food and creating green jobs that replace GOOD FOR NOTHING GREEN LAWNS by EDIBLE GREENS that feed HUMANS.My helping hands are standing by to make your garden dream come TRUE.Working together we make things HAPPEN.
