I’m incredibly grateful for the community we are surrounded by and the opportunity to feed so many of our neighbors and friends. After a year, and with the launch of Building Another Seat at The Table, I want to talk about the origins of Shepherds Table and my background. I was incredibly lucky to be raised on a farm in Southern Minnesota with my three brothers. Right outside of the Big Woods State Park, we roamed the pastures, herded the sheep, and watched my mom become one of the best cheesemakers in the country. We watched as she and my papa became involved in the early ‘Slow Food’ movement, building a farm committed to their community, ethical farming practices, and remaining stewards of the land. My summers were filled with milking, watching yearling sheep jump higher than I thought possible, and sneaking into the far reaches of the pasture for a forgotten wild plum grove to pretend I was in the Redwall books. My winters, full of bottle babies and keeping our flock alive in the frigid temps. When you’re a kid, these things are special, but the power of it never hit me until I was in my 20s.
