In his youth, Peter
Finch wove his way through a series of exploits and adventures. Travels took
him to Canada ,
where a fateful encounter in the Rocky
Mountains opened up new horizons. In midlife he and
his wife Gundi made the shift to country living, ushering in a new phase in
their life, as they set down roots in the hills and settled into a deliberately
simplified lifestyle.
Peter relates how he
and Gundi immersed themselves in ways guided by nature. As she created and sold
glass sculptures, he sunk his hands and tools into pure glacial-till soils,
sowing, planting, and growing culinary and medicinal herbs, heirloom vegetables
and salad greens to take to farmers markets and restaurants in and around Toronto . Invigorated by
the pleasures and health benefits of growing, selling, and eating fresh organic
food, Peter reveals how he became a passionate advocate of traditional,
small-scale, chemical-free farming.
High
Up in the Rolling Hills shares the personal
journey of an independent couple as they explore the vital role of nature,
creativity, and healthy food in life.
