My name is Meg Jenkins and I'm Azure Standard's senior content writer. I am so blessed to get to write about my passion—sharing the bounty of this good earth while making healthy and sustainable choices!
I have always been interested in natural and abundant living. At 17, I bought a one-way ticket to Alaska to live in a tent, wanting to experience life as simply and as naturally as possible while exploring the medicinal benefits of native plants. My interest in sustainable living continued to grow, and I ended up at Virginia Tech studying forestry, wildlife, and biology, which culminated in a Master’s in agricultural education. During that time I also studied at the University of Melbourne in Australia, pursuing forestry and wildlife studies from a completely different perspective.
I have always found great joy teaching others to both value and understand the beauty and sustenance provided for us in our natural world. As I became a homeschooling mother to four incredible humans, my dedication to natural health reached a new level: I wanted to give my family the absolute best start to a healthy life, through body, mind, and soul.
Learning about nutrition, holistic health, natural remedies, and the healing powers of food and fresh air became my side gig. My full-time job was tending to the educational, spiritual, emotional, and physical health of these beautiful children! With two grown and out of the house, I am now able to devote more time to helping those outside my home learn to live healthier lives. I am ecstatic to be working with Azure, a company that aligns perfectly with my values! I look forward to growing beside each of you as we together learn to make wise choices for our families and our planet.
