Mark is an accompished Martial Artist, Substance Abuse Counselor and a highy motivated Farmer. Having spent most of his formative years traveling, he has seen and experienced the positive effects of living in harmony with nature.
Under the tutelage of his mother, a life long gardner fluent in the propagation of both ornamental and food producing plants, he worked with great effort to cultivate the knowledge and understanding of food security and providing for family, friends and community.
A life-long learner, Mark has strived to enhance not only his skills in design but to futher his education in both traditional farming methods applied in tropical climate zones and disaster food security preparation.
As a graduate of the University of Hawaii with a degree in Susbtance Abuse Counseling, Mark understands the theraputic value of working in nature. Mark strives to implement the positive effects of permaculture, not only as a means to enhance food security but also as a tool for well-being and clairty for those who may suffer with adversity.
Starting out the New Year means bringing in new adventures. For me, it was the preparing a new tool for clients to enhance both their world view and add a tool to thier quest for food security. Enter...the raised bed!
