Bio

Diana Prichard has worked in both sales and finance but it didn’t take her long to figure out the grass is always greener outside the confines of an office building.

In an earlier time she spent a copious amount of energy each day chasing a white rabbit in the form of the dreams she hadn’t yet defined, the personal brand of zen she didn’t yet recognize. During the early 2000s she worked to cultivate a presence both online and off writing about women’s and family issues, the green movement and sustainability as well as building the infrastructure for her small farm. In the year 2008 she left her day job in pursuit of the good life and has been working to refine it ever since.

Today she is the one-woman show behind Olive Hill — a small, sustainable and diversified farm that specializes in humanely raised foods from heritage breed animals and heirloom plants — a freelance writer, an artisan food columnist for Try Handmade, a regular contributor to the working executive mother’s magazine, MOMeo Magazine, and the Managing Editor of 5 Minutes for Going Green.

She specializes in sustainable agriculture, food production and women’s issues and offers consulting, speaking and writing services in those areas.

A married mother of two, when she is not burning the midnight oil at work and home she has an addiction to chocolate; a dependency on caffeine; a deep love of peafowl, cheap flip flops, tomato sandwiches, black nail polish; and a pure unbridled loathing for the PTA to keep her busy. She is sarcastic, irreverent, misdirected, indecisive, unapologetically opinionated and unabashedly political. But she’s also deeply passionate, wholly authentic and fiercely loyal. This is her little corner of the web.
