Beyond Organic- Revolutionizing Food Production with Dennis Amoroso

In this groundbreaking episode of The Pathway to Peak Performance, host Jock Putney sits down with Dennis Amoroso — founder, innovator, and agricultural pioneer — to explore how his discovery of BioRoc is transforming farming, food, and human health across the globe.

Dennis shares his powerful journey from working in the fields as a child to leading a company that may hold the key to eliminating chemical fertilizers, regenerating soil, and producing super nutrient-rich food. Along the way, he reveals lessons on courage, persistence, and purpose — and why healthy soil and healthy people are the foundation of peak performance.

Transcription:

 We discovered Mother Nature's trick. We didn't invent it. We discovered it just like the Wright Brothers discovered the secret to flight. We discovered the secret to growing food without chemicals. We're on the cusp of like something that's just globally a huge story. Healthy people are smarter people, healthy people are more inclined to take a risk.

And risk is what? Helps the human race achieve peak performance. When we ultimately achieve the production and delivery of bio rock at the scale that is necessary, we are literally saving civilization. It's often said, you are what you eat, and nothing could be hotter than the topic of food production.

Right. Let's go beyond organic with Dennis aso as we explore his pathway to peak performance and how his bio rock formula is changing the way that people grow food across the world. Dennis's charity is the Wounded Warrior Project. Welcome to the show. The US has 900 million acres of agriculture. We're having trouble achieving production in all of our agricultural industry in America because of chemical fertilizer.

After five years of study that came out with four PhD published reports on this five year study done by uc Davis, all four reports done by uc, Davis, PhD Field agronomists, stated that rock powder-based products were the only way agriculture was gonna be saved in the state of California. Because they have to get rid of chemical fertilizers.

It's killing the groundwater. It's killing the kelp forests off the coast of California. And so it's just inevitable. It has to be got gotten rid of. And at this point in time, we are the only company on planet Earth that has a replacement product for chemical fertilizers that does not reduce the yield.

In the agricultural industry because the organic program was great, but it didn't work because the farmers could not achieve the same yield. And when a farmer can't achieve yield, his profits go away and he can't farm the next year. Our product, not only does it achieve the same yield, that's all we were trying to do.

We were only trying to achieve the same yield as commercial fertilizer. Just to show the industry that this product, non-commercial, non-chemical fertilizer, would achieve the same yield as commercial chemical fertilizer. Let me ask you a question. I came, when I came out to your facility like two years ago and saw it, it was like super impressive.

There was a farmer, almond farmer that was there. Jack. Jack, super cool guy. That was him. Yeah. He's now on our board of directors. He's a shareholder. He is a absolute disciple of Brock, so he's like, I remember he was just, that was the first, it was gonna be the first year, the first year that he was using Brock.

What happened? Well, in 2023, uh, he used it, but he applied it late in the season. So we, we just basically ignored those results and he put it on again in 20, in late 2023 and early 2024. And that's when he doubled his harvest was in 2024. Wow. So he then met with his friends who he went to school with and grew up with Franzi Vineyards.

They sold more wine than any other company in the world in 2023 and grower Direct nut company, which processes 40 million pounds of walnuts a year. I met the CEO of both of these companies. I met Brian Franzia, who is the lead brother that in, in the Franzia family, and they tried it. Their vineyard, their, their grapes in their boutique vineyard at their tasting room grew 12 feet in four months.

They just took off. So they used it. Then they, they, they got, I think it was a hundred tons for another more serious field test. They're getting the results of that this season, which is late August, September. What happens when that comes back and it's positive? What does that, how does that change the wine industry when you get rid of chemicals and you exchange it for mother nature's natural rock, nutrients, mother nature.

Put the nutrients necessary for us humans to live and be healthy and, and be successful, that she, she put it in the rock. God, the creator, put it in the rock because the rock is always there. It doesn't wash away. It's deep in the ground so it doesn't erode. So as the rock comes up. It begins to erode, it creates topsoil, and this topsoil is super rich in nutrients, and that's what's supposed to grow plants.

So when we use this rock nutrient in grapes, the wine that is the result of these grapes is robust. It's more aromatic, it's more flavorful. It's not just the glyphosate. It's the synthetic nitrogen, the synthetic potassium, phosphorus, things that they use that are not, that are, that are petrochemical based.

And so the wine gets better and the Franzi family knows this. And when Mama Franzi, who, um, is basically the boss, learned about bio rock. What it did for their plants at their tasting room. She said, there's no question, get it on some vineyards. So they put it on 50 acres of vineyards, three different kinds of grapes, and we are looking to see the results of that.

But our farmer Jack that you met, mm-hmm. When he used it on his grape vines at home. At his home. Just a little. Just a few grape vines. He didn't have to use any chemical sprays. He used no kind of B bug spray or mildew deterrent or anything like that, just by a rock in the ground. And his grapes had no blight.

No pests, no mildew, no fungus of any kind. Wow. Just by putting bio Iraq in the ground. So Dennis Amarosa, what is the origin story? Where does this all start? Well, my mother was raised in the fields. Her family came from Arkansas during the Depression to California because California was where the work was.

And they were pickers, they were poor pickers, and they finally got enough money together to buy a small farm down in in Watsonville where. Lots of agriculture. So I grew up in the fields too. I was in the fields working from the age of seven years old, and, uh, learned to love it. Learned to love the mornings and the plants and the soil and things like that.

So, uh, I understood plant. Health and, um, communications before, even before I was educated in school. And, uh, my mother was a, a doctor of homeopathic medicine. So she also understood that what comes out of the ground is what makes us who we are. So this is the, this is the foundational, uh, education that.

Made me aware of the potential of a gigantic pile of rock when I saw it. So then we started doing the research and I was thinking about this after reading the, the title of this Pathway to Peak Performance. And as I was growing up and learning and reading and so on and so forth. My heroes were Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, these people who absolutely would not give up on a goal.

So reading the, the wise words of, of, of successful men and women and, and so on and so forth. I realized that there's basically three things that help me achieve peak performance. This is what I taught my sons. First of all, you have to have a goal, a worthy goal. This goal must be something that will help humanity.

That's a worthy goal. Getting rich is not a goal. Uh, having a family and living a a, a nice life and working for a corporation. Is not necessarily a goal. You need to have a really, really solid goal. The other thing is that you must have courage to pursue this goal. Every person who ever achieved anything in life, starting with the Bible, David and Goliath, they chose courage.

And then the third thing is you determine, you make a decision that you are gonna push it and. Focus on it and re-go for it no matter what. Quitting is not an option. And everybody who ever achieved anything like this, quitting was not an option. Thomas Edison, think about that, that persistence. So this was my education, so I knew that if we were gonna do this, quitting was not an option.

And you. Embrace every small failure, every stumbling block in the road, every barrier you come to, you embrace it, you look at it, you use it as an educational point and have it help teach you what to do next. And of course, we were literally guided by the hand of God through all of this. So. When we discovered that the mine waste is full of nutrients simply by testing it and researching it, um, that was the answer.

Our, uh, chemical engineer, Dr. Leonard Nni was Professor of Chemical Engineering at University of Pennsylvania and he graduated from MIT with honors and he has. 28 patents and he worked at Stanford Research Institute and so on and so forth. He came onto our team as our chemical engineer and he absolutely was adamant that you have to have a chemical process in the soil that will decompose the rock.

And I argued that that is incorrect, that bacteria was created at the dawn of creation to do that. So one day he said, okay, I'm gonna prove you wrong. Absolutely prove you wrong. So he took a piece of tape and he put rock powder on the tape, and he measured the rock powder size particle size in his scanning electron microscope, which turns a piece of dust into the size of a dime on the screen.

So you can measure it Exactly. Precisely. Then he put it into the. Environment where we create bio rock. And 48 hours later he took it back out and he remeasured the particle size and there were 30% smaller. And he said, okay, that's it. I'm convinced there's no possible way anything could have decomposed this rock, but bacteria.

So then he did a three month study and found no reference of any kind in any university data or PhD thesis or anything on the internet that stated anything about the decomposition of Brock powder by bacteria. And he said, okay, we need a patent. So that's when he worked for two year to achieve our patent.

So we discovered Mother Nature's trick. We didn't invent it. We discovered it just like the Wright Brothers discovered the secret to flight. We discovered the secret to growing food without chemicals, and, uh, that is what it is. It's the, it's the bacteria. So our blend stimulates bacterial activity in the soil.

It brings all the nutrients that depleted soil needs to be regenerated. We can regenerate any depleted soil anywhere in the world with local resources from that region, so we don't have to ship anything anywhere or have it produced somewhere else. We can do it right there. That's pretty big. That's unbelievable economic shift, and this is why.

The, the government of Ghana is talking with us. The government of Tanzania is talking with us, South Africa, Zambia, et cetera, et cetera. Reaching for this goal led us to this ability to produce a product that will grow super nutrient rich food, which we do not have right now. We do not have to worry about going up against the chemical fertilizer companies because the farmers and the environmentalists are already doing that, and when we present them with a replacement product that works, increases yield, saves water.

We build two inches of topsoil per year in every acre. That two inches of topsoil holds 12,000 gallons of water per acre. That water is held in the soil. It's not like a pool of water or a puddle of water. It's held molecularly in the soil, ready to be used on plant roots when they need it. This is absolutely critical to the future of farming because of the.

Limited supply of water, it sounds like, like nature's own version of a drip irrigation system. It is. And it's been happening in on this planet since the planet was created. How did we get all these forests and all these prairies and all these beautiful, fabulous places with nobody fertilized them or watered them?

Hmm. Mother Nature does it. We can, natural precipitation will stay in the ground when you build topsoil. Whatever rain you get stays in the ground doesn't evaporate and it doesn't run through. So that's just part of the benefits of, of following the, the path that Mother Nature has shown us. It's really interesting, like, um, Tom's crop yield, you know, goes through the roof and almonds take a lot of water, uh, to produce.

So that, holding that extra amount of water must have had some sort of impact, I would imagine. Right. You're talking about Jack the farmer? Jack. Yeah. Jack, sorry. Uh, yes, absolutely. Absolutely. And it also has to do with the fact that when the trees blossom, the blossoms are more bright, more aromatic, and draw more pollinators.

The blossoms do the job they were designed to do. Bring in the pollinators, the bees, honeybees, all the different insects that pollinate. So when you have a higher rate of pollination, you have a higher rate of yield. More nuts, more weight, more yield. And you've been at this for a long time. Yeah, we started literally this this year, 31 years ago.

So 31 years for an overnight success. 'cause it seems like this thing is really taking off and all over the world, right? Yeah. Well first of all, you have to have proof of concept. The agricultural industry is not gonna believe you just because you tell 'em. They're not even gonna believe uc, Davis, they don't believe anybody until they see it in their field.

When they see the results, then they, they believe it. So we had to have proof of concept, undeniable proof of concept in a commercial setting. That's why Farmer Jack was so critical. Because he's a commercial almond grower. He makes his living growing almonds. He's a second generation almond grower, so he knows all the farmers.

And so when he achieved his success, that means that we now have absolute undeniable data. That we can tell anybody in the world. It's all in the documentation. And there's also documentation on what's called leaf tissue samples. Everybody's say saying, well, how do you get nitrogen in the trees if you don't put it in the ground?

If you don't feed 'em nitrogen, how do they get nitrogen? Well, we just don't go into the details of the science. We simply say, here's your leaf tissue sample data. Every data point, every nutrient level in the tree, including nitrogen, was at precisely correct point. Bacteria carry the nutrients to the root zone.

They feed it to the plant. The plant gives the bacteria an instruction. Via an enzyme says, I need calcium and iron and magnesium in these quantities right now at this microsecond in time. Boom, boom, boom, boom. That's what it gets. So the tree then if, if these nutrients are available in the ground around the roots, the tree gets precisely the nutrients that is required for every moment in time.

If it's wet, if it's dry, if it's hot, if it's cold, if it's sunny, if it's cloudy, all these things change microsecond by microsecond, and this is a continuous process, 24 hours a day, and these bacteria are everywhere. When we put bio rock in the soil, all we're doing is bringing. All the necessary nutrients, rock nutrients so they can't wash away to the soil.

And we bring biomass and biochar, which stimulates the electric and electrical conductivity of soil, allowing the bacteria to do the work that they were designed by God to do. So it really has like a world changing potential when you look at the Mississippi River Basin. You have the Mississippi River Basin, which is 500 million acres, so that's where all the farm runoff from these 500 million acres goes, is into the Mississippi River and the Mississippi River ends up in the Gulf of Mexico.

The same thing happens in the Gulf of Mexico. Only has been happening longer than. Than the Pacific Coast because you got a lot more going in there, A lot more drainage from farms going into the Gulf of Mexico and the largest dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico. Uh, last year was the size of the state of Delaware.

And when I say dead zone, I mean no marine life of any kind. Everybody knows this is happening. The National Geographic did three different um, issues on the Gulf of Mexico and the Mississippi River feeding it, and the dead manatees that are rolling up on the beach and this kind of thing. So when you replace chemical fertilizer with bio rock, that completely stops overnight.

You shut off the faucet. Yeah. Is bio rock available? You said before like it's like it's it's available kind of wherever it's all, it's all over the country, right? Yes. We can produce bio rock anywhere in the world. We build a production facility that produces about a million tons a year. So I'm just, just curious.

So if you think about that, the Mississippi River. Uh, and 500 million acres. That's just, I mean, like, I think people lose sight of this, like, what is a billion, you know, a billion, uh, 500 million acres. Wow, that's huge. So that all of that runoff, that could all, all change like, like that it would take probably three to five years to build enough production.

To supply 500 million acres. But not only would it cut off the chemical fertilizer going into the Mississippi River, it would increase their yield, save them 30% of their water production and grow food that actually feeds humans. Super nutrient rich food literally reduce the use of, uh, pharmaceuticals or reduce.

Medical costs for the average American family. That's how far it goes. This is peak performance. Peak performance of the American family. The performance of our society is based on our health. Without zinc, we cannot taste or smell. You've got all these different metals and, and, and, uh, electrolytes that are necessary in the human body for us.

To function at our optimum that comes to us through our food. You cannot take supplements, you cannot take pills. There's no other way to get it into every cell of your body other than your food. It has to be bioavailable is what you're saying. Correct. And when the bacteria decompose it at the root of the plant, they are simply preparing those nutrients to be consumed by us.

Because we are also all bacteria. When we feed the plants, the soil and create the soil that is nutrient rich, we are literally feeding our children and our grandchildren. And when you eat that kind of food and it's super nutrient rich, I'm 73 years old. I haven't been to a medical doctor in 43 years.

Because I'm not sick because I feed myself with real food. The ultimate goal is to take this waste billions of tons of waste. We also remove tens of millions of tons of food waste from the Waste Street methane, just like crazy. We can remove all of that. We take wood chips from the forest. We take chipped up.

Orchards that are pulled out, vineyards that are removed, turn it all into biochar, blend it with the rock, and we remove all that waste from the environment. So we take all this waste, we remove it, grow super nutrient rich food that then feeds the population and create stronger people. Dennis, it feels like.

Now that you have the proof, this is gonna be big news. This is about to just absolutely blow up the fact that you're here on this podcast at this particular point in time, we're on the cusp of like something that's just globally a huge story. We have the very first process for the convergence of.

Mining and agriculture. And the third one is solid waste management. Because the world creates waste and we can't keep putting it in the ground, we're gonna run outta ground to dump it it before we run outta waste so we can repurpose all of them. Food waste, all of the food production waste. All of the slaughterhouse waste, all of the meat waste in America.

Only 40% of what we grow in the fields actually reaches the plate at the dinner table. Why is that waste? Some of it is lost in the field at at picking. Some of it is lost in the warehouse when it's repackaged. Some of it is lost in on the food shelves when it runs out of date and has to be thrown out.

We saved one grocery store chain $85,000 in a single year simply because we took their food waste and they didn't have to pay for it to be hauled off, and they didn't have to pay the fine for putting it in a landfill. So then we economically benefit the grocery store chain and the warehouse chain.

Which is interesting because I heard recently that the margins for grocery store and the grocery business are really low, three to 5%. Yes. That's like one of the worst margin businesses that you can possibly be in. Our margin is 50%. Wow. Partly because we solve so many problems. We are just working with a company that takes what's called biosolids.

It's processed sewage, turns it into biochar. We put it in our fertilizer and put it back in the ground where it belongs to grow food. It's totally like sanitized. Absolutely. It's sanitized. It goes, it's 1200 degrees. The nothing, no, no, um, pathogen can, can live. What happens when you, when you show a farmer this right outta the gate, they're skeptical.

They'll believe you because they've had so much snake oil thrown at 'em through the years because 900 million acres of agriculture in America, it's a almost a trillion dollar a year business. That's an enormous potential nugget that everybody wants to get a piece of. You brought some produce with you.

Maybe our producer could hand it in to us and we could take a look at it. So you grew all of this. Yes. You're at 2200 feet. Yes. These are phenomenal. You will not find a fig of that size That's huge in a grocery store. Yeah. It's giant. There's the peach, there's the fig, and these peaches are just super rich.

I mean, all you have to do is pick it up and smell it. When was the last time you smelled a peach? That smells like, my gosh, that's wild. These strawberries, no big deal. Just simple old strawberries off of a strawberry patch. Oh my gosh. But they are super rich, super nutrient rich. Peaches are good for many things, but one of the things that they're most beneficial for is your gut health.

Gut health in humans is critical to the rest of their health. The world consumes a great deal of rice, literally hundreds of millions of tons of rice a year. So when the rice becomes nutrient rich, suddenly we have populations that are healthy. Healthy people are smarter people. Healthy people are more inclined to take a risk.

And risk is what helps the human race achieve peak performance, facing risk, taking that challenge, being excited and frill to reach out and take that risk. Healthy people do that because their bodies are stre strong. Their minds are strong because all of the elements. Required to create a healthy human being are being eaten every day.

It's really interesting. You know, you talk about the microbiome in the soil, and then we know about the microbiome in the gut. So many people are talking about that. When I heard about antibacterial soap, I just laughed. It's killing the microbiome on the skin. Why would you want to use a soap that literally kills bacteria?

We are bacteria. Bacteria on our skin, on our tongues in our eyes. We have beneficial bacteria everywhere we go. It's interesting 'cause your path to peak performance. You've been doing this for so long and you, you mentioned Edison. You know, when I lived in New Jersey, I drove past the Edison, old Edison factory.

Really? All the time. That would be incredible. I would love to see that. It was, it was, yeah. I mean, literally I would drive literally past it to go to the airport and back in those days I lived. On airplanes. Uh, I was flying just nonstop and I was always inspired, you know, just had that ability to drive past that.

And if you ever read, I'm sure you've read, think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. Yes. Yeah. And so he talks about Edison, he talks about Ford. One point in time Ford said, you know, gimme a V eight engine. The engineer said, we can't do it. He said, keep doing it until you get it, and they got it. So your pathway to peak performance is one of the components is never giving up.

Absolutely. You have your goal. You said it before you got, you have to have a goal. The goal has to be good for humanity. It's not just about making money. It has to be a fine goal. It has to be a goal that inspires others. My son, he's right now getting his PhD in physics. He came to me when he was 13 years old and he said, dad, I feel lost.

I don't wanna be like those other kids I see just going out and you know, getting stoned all the time and just worthless. He goes, well, what do I do? And I said, you have to have a life goal. You have to have a life mission. He goes, well, how do I figure out what that is? I said, what do you think about, what is it that you think about in your secret thoughts that makes you so happy that you actually get a physical response from it?

He goes, well, you're gonna think I'm crazy. I said, son, it's me. I, he said, okay. He said, I want to go to Mars. And I said, okay, there's your life mission. There's your goal. You want to go to Mars? I said, do me a favor and Google how many people wanna go to Mars on planet Earth right now? So he came back to me a couple days later and he goes, dad, there's a whole global community of people that are preparing to go to Mars.

And I said, okay, what do they need? He said, they had no physicists. They have no physicists. There's no physicist on planet Earth that wants to go to Mars. I said, okay, there you go. He goes, yeah, but I'm not very good at math. I said, so what did he do? He tutored with Dr. Leonard Nni to learn calculus, and then when he went to university, he tutored his buddies in calculus.

He is now a physicist working at a linear accelerator company in Utah, and he has completed the calculus that solves the problem of fusion, and he actually has infuser in his garage because he wants to go to Mars and he doesn't want to use a rocket to get there. Wow. So he set a goal. He had the courage as a young man to, to pursue this goal, and he absolutely has refused to quit.

And in the process, he has gone to work for a linear accelerator company that had three different problems in the company. When he got there, he solved every one of them for him, for them. Engineers had been working on these problems for years, literally. Within six months, he solved each of those problems.

He is now third in command at the company and they're sending him off to get his PhD in physics in linear accelerator physics, which is precisely the industry that he needs to achieve his goal of producing a star engine that'll take a ship the size of San Francisco to Mars. Interesting. If you were to actually go back, and I often do go back and watch these episodes over and over and over again because I find that I always hear a totally different story each time I watch it.

Um, there's a formula in what you just talked about, all highly successful people have followed since civilization began. Speaking of which civilization, when I talked to the Turkish gentlemen who are opening up bio rock production in Turkey, Turkey was the birthplace of agriculture in the quantities. To supply a civilization without agriculture, civilization does not exist.

Rome understood this. GR Greece understood this. Mesopotamia understood this. That's why their first move was agriculture production, so they could feed their society and support an army and support a government without everybody having to be a farmer. So that's the reason I say that when we. Ultimately achieve the production and delivery of bio rock at the scale that is necessary.

We are literally saving civilization. That's a pathway to peak performance. It's just the facts of life, not inventing anything here. I have a feeling it's gonna be harder to get ahold of you in the future. I hope you'll remember us as things take off. You know where I started, you know where I came from.

I'll never gonna forget, you know, working in the fields that get in the field before dawn, you know, it's, that's you remember your friends that hard work. At a young age has a huge, I mean, that, that puts it in you, right? That work ethic, um, and it also builds a fire in your belly. Whenever I decide whatever I'm gonna do, I'm gonna do it 100% full on.

Get outta my way. You know, either lead, follow or get outta my way, but do something. You know, another guy that says that all the time is, um, my friend Dr. Michael Longacre, who is uh, a stem cell guy at Stanford. And he always says that either lead, follow or get out of the way, take action. And I would love to stimulate people to take action because they need to know.

Yes, there is a solution. There is a solution. We remove six tons of CO2 per acre per year. We remove three tons of nitrous oxide per acre per year. The methane hasn't even been calculated 'cause they have no idea how much methane is being created by these landfills, but they know that we remove methane.

These are greenhouse gases, the use of bio rock in one acre. Absolutely shuts off all of those greenhouse gases for that acre. It's crazy when you drive by this landfill, that's not too far from here. You can see there's like a, a huge, um, I don't know, what is it? You know, a stack and the, you could see the methane coming out of it.

Why they're not capturing that and using it to generate electricity? I have no idea. Yeah. Why? Why wouldn't, because it burns. You can burn it like natural gas. You can create electricity with it. Gas turbines, our production facility creates biochar. When we produce biochar, we produce so much heat that we create steam that runs a steam turbine that creates the electricity to run the plant, so we will not be tapping into the grid, which is another.

Economic benefit to Tanzania, Ghana, Zambia, Zambia has eight hours of electricity a day. If you want any more electricity, you have to have a gas power generator in your backyard running your home. Multiple bio rock production facilities can facilitate the grid in the country. It's interesting. I think, you know, you, you brought it up originally, it's sort of like the notion of it's just an education and awareness thing, so people just don't know anything about it, but now they're waking up to it and they have to make the decision.

Well, and also, I mean, we're getting to a point in time where you, you gotta, you have to find a new solution because if you don't, we're in big trouble. Right. I mean that, that dead zone you just talked about in the Gulf. Correct. Pretty crazy. Now, think about this, when you have a dead zone in the miss, in the, in the Gulf of Mexico, the temperature of the water increases by 1.3 degrees Fahrenheit.

That 1.3 degrees Fahrenheit creates more hurricanes because the, the body of water is so enormous. That only 1.3 degrees Fahrenheit makes enough of a difference to create more hurricanes. One of the hurricanes that was created by the chemical fertilizer just absolutely wiped out a nitrogen chemical plant.

Is that karma or what if you are a, uh, CEO of a chemical, uh, fertilizer company and you hear what Dennis Amar is doing with Bio Rock, what are you thinking? The smart one would come to us and say, alright, how much money do you need? Because we wanna be your distribution network. We wanna work with you on a global scale.

Increase output of agriculture and his public relations story would be absolutely astronomical. We are shifting gears. We are now supporting regenerative farming, regenerative food production, super nutrient rich food. He could get into the food industry. All he has to have is creative mind and the courage to do it.

You know, it's funny, the first time I met you, the passion that you had was just infectious. It was like, wow, this guy is, man, he's, I, I, the first time I talked to you, I was just like, this guy is on it. He's just into this and a whole, I mean, the intensity, the passion for what you do is we're sitting here like this, the smells from the produce.

It's like these little strawberries just are so. It's insane. I make homemade strawberry ice cream, holy and homemade peach ice cream. Yeah. And it's, it's amazing. But when you taste these figs, it's gonna, it is gonna blow you away. And figs really have some tastes like honey. Wow. Amazing. All grown in your garden.

This is a phenomenal story. Will you come back and share, um, let's say. I dunno, six months, a year, whatever. Whenever you feel is the time when you come back and give us an update on how things are going for you. Sure. I'd be delighted to. Well, my friend, it looks like you're on your way. And, um, it's always a pleasure to spend any time with you and I really am grateful that you came all the way here to see us.

Um, and I wish you godspeed and great success, and you're gonna keep us posted on what happens with all of this, and we'll, we'll go from there. Well, thank you so much. All right. Thank you so much. Thank you. Hey, thanks everyone for watching the show. Please remember to like, comment, and subscribe. It really helps us out here at the channel and share the video with someone who might be interested in supporting the charity that our guest, uh, mentioned in the episode.

Thanks again. We'll see you soon.
