Daron Joffe
Daron Joffe (born 1975) is a U.S. agribusiness and nonprofit executive who is prominent in the organic farming and biodynamic agriculture movements. He is the founder and president of Farmer D Organics and the nonprofit Gan Chaim community-supported farming project.
==Education and early career==
Joffe was born in South Africa and moved with his family to Atlanta, Georgia, when he was three years old.〔("Field of Dreams," Jewish Daily Forward, January 17, 2003 )〕 When he was a student at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, he took an accredited apprenticeship on a nearby organic farm. Joffe dropped out of school in 1995 and returned to Georgia, where took an apprenticeship at a biodynamic farm.〔(“Organic guru extols virtues of sustainable gardening,” Atlanta Journal-Constitution, September 4, 2008 )〕 In 1996, he returned to Wisconsin and bought a farm, where he combined organic and biodynamic agricultural practices. In 1998, he was honored by the American Biodynamic Association as the organization’s “rookie biodynamic farmer of the year.” Joffe would later recall that the farm was not profitable, and that he made more money selling organic pizza and falafel at a farmers’ market in Madison, Wisconsin.〔
In 2000, Joffe relocated to San Francisco, California, where he worked as a teacher with the San Francisco League of Urban Gardeners (SLUG). The program, which was based at the Log Cabin Ranch in the Santa Cruz Mountains and was run by the San Francisco Juvenile Probation Department, taught horticulture and farming to incarcerated teenagers.〔("The Power of Gardening," San Francisco Chronicle, May 9, 2001 )〕
Joffe, in an interview with the ''San Francisco Chronicle'', praised the SLUG concept of bringing urban youth to a farm setting. "Gardening is a powerful teaching tool because food is so elemental and they get that," he said. "Out here, these kids grow food that they contribute to their communities back home. That's a life-changing experience for many of them."〔
