Jamie Truppi

I grew up part-time on a dude ranch in the Frank Church Wilderness in Idaho. We foraged for berries and mushrooms, fished in the creek and ponds, and made everything from scratch. Back in the city, we ate our fair share of convenience food, but homemade Italian food and baked goods always tasted better. On my family’s mini-farm outside Seattle, my sisters and I helped our dad cultivate an organic garden and orchards, while mom helped us juice and preserve. 

After wreaking havoc on my body during my twenties, I turned my attention both outward and inward, considering the effects of modern agriculture on my body and the environment, and the effects of my mindset on my life and wellness. I became certified in Permaculture & Design in Thailand, completed two yoga teacher trainings in Portland, OR, became a freelance food writer, and began studying science at an Oregon college, just for fun!

When visiting my sister in the hospital as she battled a rare and aggressive ovarian cancer, I witnessed her team of Western health experts informing her that food would have no beneficial effect on her body or healing process. In that moment, I was called to the field of integrative nutrition with a focus on environmental impact. After almost a decade directing galleries in the fine art world, I began studying science and nutrition.
