For most people, the journey is a very winding road. That is definitely true for me, Brad Tarrant, founder of Rising Phoenix Foodscapes. From an early career in the non-profit world, to a second career in software project management, to today as the creator of Rising Phoenix Foodscapes - a few threads have been constant through them all - a love for educating people, a love for helping people get more out of life, and a love for nature.

My vision for Rising Phoenix Foodscapes is to help people experience how easy it is to grow a healthy lifestyle from your own backyard! In additional to healthy food, gardening has been proven to add overall happiness, longevity, and meaning to life!

I’m privileged to earn a Masters of Urban and Environmental Planning from Arizona State University and become a certified Arizona Master Watershed Steward. In addition to starting two successful non-profits, I also became an Army veteran while serving during Operation Desert Storm. While all that is great for one’s LinkedIn page, serving people has always been my greatest joy!
