I am a teacher, a flexitarian, I am very active in my church. I love to garden. I am very interested in growing and canning my own food, and if I can't grow it myself, I try to find it locally. I only eat meat that comes from free-range, horomone free, no antibiotic kind of farms. I want to pass on my love of outdoor stuff to my kids. I love reading. I am engaged to the love of my life.
