Support the show
Tyler Brown understood early on how food and community intertwine, as his family always felt the evening meal was sacred time. It was at the dinner table where the personal exchange happened. That experience stuck with him as he looked toward his career.
After high school, he took a kitchen position at the Wild Dunes Resort in Isle of Palms, South Carolina, outside of his hometown of Charleston. Brown was drawn to the cadence, the order, the process of the kitchen, and soon enrolled in culinary school at Johnson & Wales University.
He completed a three-month cooperative at the Keystone Resort in Colorado as part of the degree program, where he learned large-format kitchen production at a high level. Back in Charleston, he joined Peninsula Grill as a line cook â and ultimately sous chef. It was where he first felt the power of the French brigade order, and where he formed a friendship with Chef Sean Brock that would shape his future path.
Later, Brown went to work as chef de cuisine with Brock at Capitol Grille in the Hermitage Hotel. He became executive chef in 2006 and began implementing seed-to-plate sourcing that culminated in the creation of the three-acre Garden at Glen Leven and 150 head of red poll cattle at Double H Farms.
In 2015, Brown joined the team at Southall outside Franklin, Tennessee, as Senior Vice President of Agriculture and Culinary. -

Support the show
Christine is a seasoned entrepreneur and powerful team builder whose authenticity and passionate engagement create community wherever she focuses her attention.
It was finding and falling in love with snowboarding that changed her life and led her to Colorado. During the heyday of the early 90âs snowboard culture explosion, Christine was lucky enough to compete as a World Cup halfpipe competitor.
By 24, Christine was running High Cascade Snowboard Camp in Oregon as General Manager where she helped build a remarkable team and community; exhibiting a knack for leadership, dependability and getting shit done. While honing her leadership skills as both as a coach and trainer, she embraced yoga as a means to control injury, pain and a racing mind. She has been practicing yoga for 30 years and remains grateful to all her teachers.
She then pivoted to transport some of campâs mojo to Colorado's Copper Mountain, serving as it's first Minister of Culture as progressive resorts were on the cusp of recognising the power of embracing the emerging youth culture. She rounded out her sales experience with Burton Snowboards as the Rocky Mountain representative on team Damiano Inc. After several years building a multi-million dollar territory, Christine later branched out into adjacent opportunities in real estate.
Then Baja called. Recognized as a powerful igniting force for new ideas, Christine was invited to help found the award-winning hotel Rancho Pescadero. Her ability to recognize and develop talent and ride roughshod over challenges were a perfect combination for this venture.Within a year, she helped turned 12 rooms into 29 and landed the hotel on the Conde Nast Hot List. She next launched Casa Tota, which quickly became a must-visit hotel in Todos Santos. -

With his background in permaculture and agroecology, and, having worked extensively in California, Hawaii, and internationally in Costa Rica, Peru, Mexico, Ghana, and Nigeria, Evan Marks knows that people have the ability to directly impact the environment through individual change.
âOne day in Nigeria, Evan Marks had a realization that he wanted to go home and change the Orange County community where he grew up.
So Marks, a Newport Beach native and UC Santa Cruz graduate, repatriated himself and came upon a dirt lot in San Juan Capistrano. The property along Alipaz Street contained a very old palm tree, a very old citrus tree and an 1878 farmhouse, the oldest wooden structure in the city. The bare homestead had belonged to Pony Express rider Joel Congdon and was the site of the countyâs first walnut grove. Now it belonged to the city. Nothing was happening there.
Marks saw potential. He had a vision to change that corner of the county, which was otherwise full of âcul-de-sacs and consumers,â as he puts it.â

This effort resulted in the largest land use change in the metro areaâs recent history Compared to the 15 county metro Atlantaâs model over the last three decades, this land plan provides for 20% more housing while saving 70% of the land for agriculture and recreation. In 2004, the Nygrens began development of Serenbe the community to demonstrate these concepts. The result is reminiscent of century-old communities connected to current technology. Steve has chaired many local and state board and currently serves on three national boards dealing with environmental issues.
