In November 2017, I visited my old man’s childhood home and was drawn to the mature Meyer Lemon trees.  Within a week, life gave me lemons and a Traeger and the rest of the story is being written.

Yep, March 2020 was a doozy. I found solace in the fruit and in the smoke but mostly in sharing it with others.

In June 2021, I walked away from 26 years in education searching for new ways to spread positive vibes. Today, I work with family farms from Orosi California to Sicily, Italy to ensure access to the highest quality products.
