Born and raised in the
Cumberland Valley of
Pennsylvania, Sandra struck
out for California straight out
of high school. Formally
educated in geology and
anthropology, she also rolled
up her sleeves and dug her
hands into what was to
become the birth of the
farm-to-table, support your
local farmers movement.
Along the way, she did some
time digitalizing offshore oil
rigs, and networking and
securing international
companies' communication
systems through emerging
technologies. But eventually
she broke out of her cubicle,
cast off her cables and now
follows her passion for great
meals by digging in the dirt,
raising food, writing about it
and inspiring others to follow
in her boot tracks.
