Practicing what she preaches, Dr. Tanda runs Maple and Sage Farm in Pulaski, Tennessee. Maple and Sage is a regenerative farm on 40 acres. Tanda raises plants and animals based on the philosophy of going back to our roots and improving the health of the soil and working with nature. From soil to soul.
