About Nashville Foodscapes:Jeremy Lekich was born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee by two hippy parents who fostered a sense of reverence in him for the more-than-human ecosystem. He received a Bachelor of Science from Warren Wilson College in Swannanoa, North Carolina and majored in biology, where he focused on plants and systems design. During this time, he also got a Permaculture Design Certificate and, more importantly, he was introduced to the magic of the forest and all of the wondrous wild edible and medicinal plants that are our neighbors. In 2010, Jeremy founded Nashville Foodscapes, and in 2014, Jeremy co-founded Compost Nashville. As of January 2021, Nashville Foodscapes became a worker-owned cooperative. Jeremy's journey as an entrepreneur has allowed him to witness the value of leveraging our current systems and capital to create new ones that are more equitable and harmonious. He is a community resilience enthusiast and believes in the power of a localized economy and an inspired, well-fed community.Nashville Foodscapes is a full-service design/build foodscaping company.
