Mykl Nelson II

I grew up in a military family and have traveled around the planet. I started down my agricultural path after picking the makings of a salad directly into a bowl while standing within a greenhouse in my backyard in Colorado. I moved to the Pacific Northwest to really immerse myself in an environment of plant growth. I've worked on a handful of farms and tended ever-larger gardens, often on someone else's land. In addition to my work for OSU's certificate program in urban agriculture, I am experimenting with a system to convert food waste into insect protein.
