Peter first learned about The Land Institute while working on a research project at UC Davis, where he received a B.Sc. in Sustainable Agriculture and Food Systems. He became increasingly interested in perennial grains and spent a year working in the soil ecology lab at The Land Institute as the team’s Post-baccalaureate Researcher. He has cooked in San Francisco, New York City, and Kansas City restaurants and worked at Perennial Pantry in Minnesota to develop markets for perennial grains. He continues to work on expanding his connection to land, people, and place through the art of cooking, writing, and storytelling.
