Ria Ibrahim Taylor, Farm-to-Table Director, (she/her) brings to Soul Fire Farm an ancestral passion for food, coming from a family of farmers, fishermen and chefs. Her cooking traditions are intimately bound with her homeland of Indonesia and she learned to cook with her mother and family almost from birth. In addition to cooking she was a founder of KOMBES Makassar, a community oriented anti-littering and trash management organization focusing on urban agriculture and building community solutions to Indonesia’s recycling and trash challenges. She also is beginning a project as a rural farmer/homesteader and is most excited to be raising ducks in the coming years. Ria has been working with Soul Fire Farm since 2017.
