Chloe Lieberman

Faculty

Chloe (she/her) grew up in the territory of live oaks, bay laurels, redwoods, red tailed hawks, white tailed deer and serpentine stones, where fog rolls in every evening on the Northern California coast, in the unceded territory of the Coast Miwok people, in what’s now known at Marin County. Wonder, awe and a deep love for the living world around her has stirred in her heart as long as she remembers.

For the past 20 years, she has devoted her hands, heart, and busily buzzing mind to exploring the relationships between food, community, and spirituality. Care and curiosity took her to nearly 10 different countries around the world to visit, learn from, and participate in various community-based agricultural projects. From 2008-2013 she studied old stories and new ways of weaving culture with Martín Prechtel at his international school, Bolad’s Kitchen. Between 2013 and 2022, she co-managed an Appalachian homestead where she and others produced 80% of their own food through organic gardening, orcharding, mushroom cultivation, and animal husbandry. For the past nine years she has worked with Wild Abundance, a school of permaculture and carpentry just north of Asheville, NC. Chloe’s roles include copywriting and strategy, and she and Wild Abundance founder and director, Natalie Bogwalker co-created the world’s most comprehensive online gardening program.

Chloe is a writer, a cook, a mother, a singer, and a committed member of her local community of people, humans and others. She brings attentive care and nurturing presence to the unpredictable journey of aliveness, and readily opens the doors to her hearth in welcome.
