JODI CASH - EDITOR IN CHIEF
Jodi is from Atlanta, Georgia though she spent four of her most formative years in the rural town of Ft. White, Florida. Since childhood, she has been an impossibly picky eater and fed many a vegetable to her dogs to escape eating them herself. At the University of Georgia she majored in English and minored in Spanish and Environmental Law, where she cultivated a style of honest and evocative writing. While in school, she began working in a popular Athens restaurant where she learned to eat adventurously and to appreciate where the food comes from. After earning her masters in journalism, she moved back to Atlanta, where she now works as a writer for MailChimp.
ERIN WILSON - MANAGING EDITOR // DIRECTOR OF MARKETING & OUTREACH

She became interested in food and cooking in high school and college as a way to commune and as a form of creative expression. After earning a degree in Public Relations from the University of Georgia, she has been working at The National restaurant as the public relations director and front of house manager. Never able to be around food enough, she also has a small catering company called Wild Food and hosts her ladies every Monday night for small feasts and good talks.

Gresham Cash - Contributing Editor
If locality is defined by time spent in a location, Gresham is thoroughly Athenian. An entire lifetime in Georgia’s Classic City is responsible for shaping him into someone with a deep appreciation for music, writing, and art. However, at the University of Georgia, his studies involved another love of his: the natural world. Studying the relationships between plants and animals, water and soil, humans and the earth, Gresham has developed a keen sense of why it is important to know a little bit about our food and water. Both come from natural resources, and both provide humans with life. He suspects there is reason to contemplate this relationship.
