I just adore Eileen. She is one of those humans literally changing our communities, making a big difference and honestly, saving lives with good, heathy food. If we are what we eat, then I’m a better human for having eaten GoFarm shares this year.
Seriously though- she and her team are honestly changing food systems, building a community around her organization, GoFarm, and employing part-time and full-time farmers. I became a shareholder in 2018 after driving by the GoFarm containers for the last few years and oh my gosh… the proof is in the way I look, feel, and behave towards my food now. (Ahem- and did I mention I took 33 minutes off my best half-ironman time this summer, thanks largely due to the plant-based GoFarm food I’ve been eating since early May!) … I just cannot emphasize enough, how meaningful and impactful GoFarm and Eileen (and her team), are. Revolutionary, I tell you.
I hope you’ll find a way to get involved in this group or one just like it in a community near you.
