Joel Solomon

Joel-Solomon

“In my early twenties I was diagnosed with a genetic kidney disease. I was told it would kill me unless I had a transplant or I went on regular dialysis treatments for the rest of my life. That was the story that was my wake-up call: I realized that life might really be limited and I’d better figure out what I really wanted to do with it and not just be swept along like flotsam and jetsam. I also realized that I needed to experience living in my body instead of just in my head. Because if I had a healthier body I would feel better day-to-day and I would probably live much longer. I spent a couple of years exploring and adventuring, which led me to Canada for the first time, where I became interested in the natural world, started gardening and learning how to grow food, which I’m still fascinated with today and far healthier for it!”
