Angie’s passion for sustainability and natural health began well before she began her career over 20 years ago. With a degree in Sustainable Agriculture and Plant Science, over two decades of experience in the natural products industry, and a chef with a passion for real food, she always has something to share. Her focus on wellness and sustainability has led her down a winding path of creating a small family farm in San Diego County. The humbling experience of building a regenerative organic space to feed a family of five is a never-ending learning experience. Add in a flock of chickens, 2 pigs, three teenage kids, and Angie is immersed in all things food, farming and family.
Written with passion, created from years of experience, Angie evokes good in a world of global reach, believing that one small shift can create a ripple effect. Finding happiness in supporting what she loves, she is rooted in tradition, determined to change the future of our food, one bite at a time. Angie writes from the heart!

The History of Einkorn Wheat
When our ancestors happened upon Einkorn wheat 14,000 years ago, they were the first humans to begin cultivating their own food.

We love this question... the simple answer is no, Einkorn (Triticcum monococcum) is not gluten free. But the well-researched response is ‘einkorn wheat does not contain the same old gluten that we have come to avoid these days!’
