Chris did not pay much attention to the source of the food he was eating until his kids arrived on the scene. Suddenly, it became an important factor as tiny humans now depended on him to make sound nutritional choices. Chris also began to feel a calling in his heart to start a small farm. He put it out of his mind several times but it kept popping back up over and over. Finally, after much deliberation and many signs from God he pitched the idea to his wife. The factors were simple.... hard work but more time with family...nutrient dense food for themselves and their community.... Rusted Root Farm was born! Chris then pitched the idea to Danny, who was onboard and the adventure began.
