Julie Rubaud

Julie owns Red Wagon Plants, a plant nursery in Hinesburg, VT that focuses on organic edible gardening, sustainable landscaping, and herb growing. Her background includes lots of time in her father's restaurant kitchen as a teenager, chopping herbs and making salads. From there she went on to grow vegetables in Burlington's Intervale and on a farm in Starksboro, VT. Her plant nursery evolved out of a love of home gardening and cooking, and the desire to share that knowledge with customers. Julie loves Jr Iron Chef VT and the role it plays in getting kids excited about food and farming.
