Maurice Small
Maurice Small is an independent consultant with 25+ years of experience in urban food systems development, youth entrepreneurship training, and soil creation. Maurice inherited his profound respect and love for the earth from his parents. This love for natural process and growth nurtures his strong desire to build community as he teaches and cultivates a regional vision for sustainable agriculture, healthy lifestyles in underserved communities and urban/rural collaboration between growers and vendors. His work to address the development of a more sustainable regional food system began in Northeast Ohio in 1988 with vacant lot reclamation, community garden creation, work with local after-school programs and volunteering with organizations to cultivate urban local food production.

Rebecca Reynolds
Rebecca Reynolds is an international and national speaker and educator with over 20 years of experience in holistic health, herbalism, environmental healing practices, and energy work. She began her aware relationship with Earth at three years old, growing up in rural Ohio on 30 acres of land with horses, a donkey, geese, and ducks as some of her closest friends. Years later she returned to her town of birth on the shores of Lake Erie, her True North. Severe health issues as a child into her young adult life, along with her depth of love for the Earth, would lead her to create the first organic and socially conscious cleaning company and product line, Green Clean, followed by Planet Green, Cleveland’s first organic lifestyle store. Listening closely to her heart, Rebecca made her way to NYC to study Nutrition and later Positive Psychology. Using her kaleidoscope of education, Rebecca expanded her territory of knowledge to corporations, individuals, and children, helping them to become the “Boss of their Brains”. With one of a kind, inspiring programs, Rebecca guides you to regulate your central nervous systems to peace, through Nature, Movement and Wonder. Her strong background in organic, plant based nutrition and a focus on Love for all Beings, naturally shifts all who work with her closer to peace, harmony, and a deep sense of connectedness to each-other and Earth. Rebecca speaks for the Earth and the children with unwavering resolve for a just world and the collective consciousness of Love.
