- Profile
Kathy is a full-time gardener and garden designer, working in the foothills of northern California near Nevada City. Mixing food and flowers together into garden environments that feed the tummy and the spirit! The climate and elevation in the foothills are favorable for gardening all year-round. In her gardens, fragrant herbs provide a constant backdrop for seasonal vegetables, berries, ... even fruit trees, and the ever-changing color-show created by the flowers. When not playing in the dirt, Kathy is actively supporting others who do - putting in some overtime hours assisting local grass fed, grass finished, pastured beef rancher Jim Gates -NevadaCountyFreeRangeBeef.com- with marketing and ranch business, ... and as co-editor of the LocalFoodCoalition.org Website and Network, advocating for local agriculture and building relationships between local growers and the people who love to eat local food. In her spare time ... ha! ... Kathy is tending her own garden, and teaching herself how to cook ... better! Notes and thoughts about the local food scene in the foothills can be found in her blog at BriarPatch.coop.
