Leah Di Bernardo and Joanne Di Bernardo, the sisters behind EAT Marketplace and Cultivating Good in Temecula, California, are spearheading a Kickstarter campaign to raise $200,000 for a transformative farm-to-table-to-pharmacy initiative. Their project aims to establish a regenerative farm in Pala, which will feature greenhouses and a community marketplace designed to educate the public about sustainable agriculture and healthy eating. Leah, who operates EAT Marketplace, advocates for food as medicine and emphasizes the importance of sourcing ingredients directly from local farmers. The sisters' efforts are inspired by their late sister Deborah, who was a pioneer in organic coffee production. The funds raised will support the development of a living classroom where community members, chefs, and culinary students can learn about regenerative practices. The Di Bernardos aim to create a replicable model that can be adapted globally, promoting a healthier food system and addressing the rising costs and declining nutritional value of food.
