We Are Celebrating Life at Any Age! These IYSL lifestyle podcasts are you, for you, from people like you. We all share a lot as we mature in life and the journey is made even more special when we can celebrate it with someone else. In the LIVING WELL series, my guests will share their stories of being ordinary people, like you and me, and doing the extraordinary. Pivoting, building businesses, creating, renewing, and rewarding themselves by Living Well. We’ll also remind ourselves about the importance of living and being in awe. They will share their personal lives, their resilience, courage, maybe a failure, and most importantly, getting back up. My guests are willing to help others with their experiences, live life with great meaning, and give back with their hearts. Eating Well - As a spin-off for promoting healthier lifestyles (at any age!) I will share my own passions – beekeeping and plant-based lifestyle tips in the EATING WELL series. I’ll be interviewing other plants-first fanatics too! Plant-rich, plant-slant, plant-forward or whatever you want to call it, let’s just eat more veg! After all, at IYSL, we are about mind-body wellness, nature, and the natural, living soul-fully, and being social and out and about.

Matt Fetissoff - Entrepreneur, Gardener, Father and Chef - Merging Permaculture and Plants into a Vegan Holistic Lifestyle

Monday Feb 05, 2024

Matt Fetissoff and his family began growing food on their little slice of Fort Collins, Colorado land in 2013. Years before, Matt learned about the industrialization of modern food starting with the book The Omnivore’s Dilemma, then a little film called Food Inc., and subsequently permaculture from people like Adam Brock and Brad Lancaster. These experiences revealed how important growing your own food can be, and soon his mind was full of garden plans while his heart focused on feeding his family. It wasn’t long before his kitchen was overflowing with everything from squash to tomatoes, challenging him to put the harvest to good use.

Around that time his family tried to purchase sustainable locally raised meat, eggs, and dairy, but there was lingering doubt that their lifestyle was just. Then in the spring of 2017, he and his wife had a big conversation about some undercover footage she found on the internet and were frustrated that they had supported such energy-intensive and unbelievably cruel industrialized farming practices for so long. From that day on they were vegan. Not long after, they saw the films Cowspiracy, Seaspiracy, and The Game Changers which helped fortify their lifestyle change, and it was clear to see that leaving animal products behind meant exploring cooking and recipes in an entirely new, beautiful & healthy direction.

Food has driven Matt’s life in some big ways, including his work with the non-profit The Growing Project where he helped grow crops, organize events, and cook communally shared meals at their educational garden using ingredients freshly harvested on-site. He has also contributed to the food gift economy culture which developed from his time with the Northern Colorado Permaculture Guild, where he helped organize workshop events & cooked shared meals for volunteers. With the Guild, Matt has been able to bring permaculture to a wider audience while befriending an emerging community of skilled volunteers who share their time and energy out of love for the movement. And his decade participating in community events has also inspired the creation of his own permaculture design & yardscaping business, Common Roots.
