Notă biografică
Henning Sehmsdorf grew up in economically distressed post-war Germany, where he and his siblings survived by growing food in a sizable home garden and by gleaning surrounding fields in exchange for food. In high school, he participated in "harvesting vacations," where students worked the fields and the farmer delivered produce to the school in return. After moving to the U.S., he earned a Ph.D. and taught at the University of Washington. He purchased 10 acres of land on Lopez Island in 1970 and became a full-time farmer in 1994. In 1999, he rejoined WSU as an adjunct professor at the Center for Sustaining Agriculture and Natural Resources. He serves on numerous boards and committees related to sustainable agriculture, farming, land stewardship, and education. Henning chairs the Future Farm Council, which aims to transition the farm to community ownership. Henning has been a Mentor Farmer under the apprenticeship program offered by the Biodynamic Farming Association.
