Growing up in Southern California, she would spend as much time outdoors as possible, often frequenting the beach, mountains, Yosemite National Park, and developing a strong desire to live off the land. Connection to the wild has always been her compass.    Tammy holds a B.A. in Social Science with an emphasis in environmentalism, a teaching degree and a Master's in Education. She has over 20+ years working within the holistic health arena, including nutrition, fitness therapy, teaching, re-wilding, nature immersion, herbalism and regenerative & biodynamic based farming. All of these elements have brought her to building her dream at Hamilton Pool Farms - where she has co-created a regenerative, permaculture & biodynamic farm, with a Farm School and education program that connects over hundreds students with gardening, food sourcing, sustainably and nature skills.    Tammy is a mother of five children who have always been her inspiration for a more natural world.  She enjoys bee-keeping her apiary at the farm, loving on her sweet Golden Doodle farm dog, and connecting with nature as she develops the farm culture while teaching a more sustainable & natural way of living.    Sponsors for this episode:  This episode is sponsored by Wild Foods, a company that puts quality, sustainability, and health first in all of their products.
