The Seeking Growth Leadership Podcast
Education:Self-Improvement
It was a book I read years ago called Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan that sparked a sincere interest in me to as more questions about where my food came from and how it was produced. Having the opportunity to sit down with Matt L’Heureux from Aurora View Farms was an absolute pleasure and a moment in my day that I really enjoyed. I was able to ask Matt anything, and I did. Matt has a plethora of knowledge considering this isn’t the world he was brought up in, however he and wife Elizabeth have taken the ball and run with it. Matt and Elizabeth's approach to farming is one that I am proud to support and I can’t thank them enough for not only farming the right way in my eyes, but for also being a crucial aspect to the success of The Half A Dozen Dinner Series that sees us giving back to those who are less fortunate. If you yourself are an omnivore and are local here in BC, be sure to give Aurora View Farms a try!
