Marie Eisenmann
Marie lives off-grid with her family in a earthship built in Québec’s province 40 years ago. Raised in France, she came to Canada for three months…18 years ago ! After being a journalist and editor-in-chief in an outdoor magazine, she became a leader in urban agriculture, co-founding and managing a pioneer organization promoting this activity. Now she shares her time between homesteading in the earthship she renovated with her husband and promoting industrial hemp through their new organization, Hempbassadors.
