Our job is to keep the schooner culture and the working waterfront alive and accessible, because it's an important part of our national and local history, and so we have a number of schooners that are based out of Camden Maine and people take day trips on them and they also take longer overnight trips on them and, much like your patient's job.
Ever wondered what drives someone to leave a high-flying career on Wall Street for the quiet life of a farm? In this episode of The Rehab, Dr. Mark Leeds chats with Seth Silverton, who did just that. Seth is the mastermind behind Forktale, a storytelling event paired with locally sourced foods, and Village Roots, a charity providing organic foods to those in need in Maine.
His journey from the bustling streets of New York to the serene fields of Camden is nothing short of inspiring. Seth's mission goes beyond just farming. He identified a pressing need to provide healthy, organic food to soup kitchens and food pantries, replacing the processed junk that often fills our diets. Through Village Roots, Seth anonymously donates organic produce to families and individuals, teaching them how to grow their own food along the way. But it's not just about food.
Seth dives into the biochemical effects of experiential therapy and stresses the importance of having a strong support network. He also touches on the challenges of cultural change and how some people struggle emotionally with it. Plus, he discusses the gap between medical treatment and addiction support communities, offering meditation as a tool to quiet the mind. Join Dr. Mark Leeds as he unpacks Seth's incredible journey and explores how sustainability can improve lives.
Whether you're interested in organic farming, charity work, or mental health, this episode offers a wealth of insights.
