Episode Details

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.

Show Highlights

"You educate yourself by educating. You're feeding your mind and then you can feed others. You feed your body, you can feed others."
