lifestyle, growing most of their own food, with no phone, no electricity and
no hot running water. They are now based on Whidbey Island, Washington, living
right in town, within walking distance of the community garden and the sea. Together
they have launched Breathe Deep Productions, a media company centering on projects
that explore the intersections between nature, agriculture, and spirituality.
