ABOUT THE INSTRUCTORS
Jordan and Silvan have worked in sustainable agriculture for over a decade. Jordan completed an apprenticeship in environmental farming systems after college in 2013 Silvan has been working on farms in New Mexico, North Carolina and Pittsburgh since 2014. We ran a farm together on leased land where we grew organic produce and sold to restaurants, at farmers markets, and through a CSA program. After moving to Pittsburgh in 2015, we transitioned from commercial farming to creating an abundant self-sufficient garden that could provide us with most of our food for the year, even with little space of our own and full time day jobs. Over the years we've gained some serious insight into how to make our garden really feed us and our friends and family while minimizing all the stresses that can turn gardening into a chore. Growing food and cooking meals from what we've produced brings us so much joy, and we're so excited to share that with you through this course!
