I was recently interviewed as a guest on The Storied Recipe Podcast, and our episode went live today!! Here’s what the host, Becky Hadeed, had to say about the episode and the highlights of our interview.

I’m so pleased to welcome my new friend Cari to the episode today. Cari is a master gardener, a new homesteader, and a garden coach for new and aspiring gardeners. Cari grew up as a nomad, in her own words, as her father’s job took her all across the U.S. However, she found stability in her childhood through annual visits to her grandparents farm. Later, Cari paused in the Pacific Northwest with her husband. But when infertility and miscarriage brought pain into their lives Cari’s instinct was to pack up and leave – to run away. Instead, she decided to stay, to put down roots, and to find purpose in the land. I’m grateful Cari came on today, shared her perfect scone and summer jam recipes with us, along with her stories... and I’m so grateful to YOU, listener, for tuning in.
