Episode description
Everett Hendrixon, with Eco Supply LLC, has been in agriculture for 20+ years. With an early career in law, and then business management, Everett believes he found what he wants to be when he grows up – someone who feeds people. Whether that means giving fresh produce from his micro-farm or educating others on the benefits of growing real food, his mission is to connect as many as possible to their food source.

- Food can reframe the challenges you have in a way that makes solutions obvious.
“You educate yourself by educating. You're feeding your mind and then you can feed others. You feed your body, you can feed others.”
