Today on Episode 5 of Cherry Picking we are joined by Matt Swiech, a hospitality worker turned entrepreneur. Matt began investing in a business idea of his back in December of 2020, driven by the lack of food security on Vancouver Island. He's identified a problem with the relationship to the food that we eat, taken a creative approach to solve challenges in setting up his business, and is set on spreading information on the topic while helping his broader community in the process. Tune in this week to understand how our mind, body, and health is impacted by what we eat and where it comes from.
Cheers,
Alexia
