Owner
Grounded VitalityOwner
Mar. 2011Greater Minneapolis-St. Paul AreaTrained in Clinical Massage Therapy, I have run a massage therapy practice that delivers services to people in their homes since 2011. I work with people that have complex medical needs as much as those who simply need the extra care of a relaxing massage delivered to their home. Since starting to farm in 2015, I have used my massage expertise to support my fellow farmers with education and resources for caring for their bodies. Farming is a uniquely challenging profession and there is a high risk of injury - both traumatic and repetitive stress. I see the link between the sustainability of our farms with the sustainability of our physical habits and want to use my expertise to help others do the same. I've given presentations on the topic at the MOSES Organic Farming Conference, Midwest Women's Herbal Conference and contributed my writing to many other farming resources.
