What is Biodynamic Farming?

Ned's full spectrum hemp oils are made from carefully cultivated organic Colorado hemp grown on a farm that employs biodynamic farm principles and practices. Biodynamic farming is working with nature, not against it. To answer that question of what biodynamic farming is, let's go back to the beginning, all the way back to 1924. (Ghost-written blog post)

By Transforming a 'Stroad,' Denver Can Move Forward on a Safer, More Inclusive Transportation System

Like many rapidly growing cities across the United States, Denver wrestles with its car-prioritized legacy of interstate building and exit expansions through its increasingly traffic-snarled communities.

CBD Oil for Dogs (and Other Beloved Furry Friends)

In 2019, I ghost-wrote a series of blog posts for wellness brand Ned, focusing on the health aspects of organic CBD grown in the Colorado mountains on a biodynamic farm. I conducted keyword research for SEO purposes, as well as accurate representation of health content. The tone of the pieces followed the brand's relaxed online presence and conformed to its style guide.
