He later started Front Step urban farm in Providence and pedaled a compost pick up business in a 6 ft. trailer. Nathaniel lived in the California for a few years where he ran a backyard CSA in Berkeley,  taught compost workshops & gardening at Garden for the Environment, and learned new farming techniques at Little City Garden in San Francisco.
