I have designed, implemented, managed, and maintained farm and garden projects throughout California, including Sonoma and Napa Counties, coastal Santa Cruz County, and Malibu.
I have a proven ability to design and manage projects both large and small, from 100+ acre agro-ecology systems to mid-size estate gardens & orchards, and smaller home scale gardens.
I am also highly skilled in value-added product development, with the ability to create a plethora of culinary and medicinal goods.
I hold a Master’s degree in Education and Curriculum Design from the University of Washington, as well as a graduate certificate in Environmental Education & Community.
I am both a plant person and a people person, with the ability to communicate clearly and efficiently. I am a fun, inspiring and passionate human, with a big heart and desire to make long lasting, positive impacts on the world. I currently live with my lovely wife and two vivacious sons in Sebastopol, California.
Testimonials
“Eytan Navah was hired as our Farm Director and worked there from 2015-2022. Together we transformed a hardpan square of “dirt” (hard to call it soil) into one of the most vital, abundant, unique, stunning, holistic, and regenerative farms on the planet. I say this from experience, not exaggeration.
Hundreds of visitors from around the World, including dozens of professional chefs, farmers, landscape architects, naturalists, biologists, and so on, have all visited the farm and were all similarly shocked at what Eytan accomplished.
He is extremely creative, a resourceful thinker, and has an understanding of systems and relationships such that he can think about short, medium, long, and extremely long term goals simultaneously. I can say (specifically as a result of our 7 years working together) that Eytan can execute across a wide range of budget constraints, ranging from shoestring to luxury world class designs.
I can honestly say without hyperbole that working with Eytan was one of the highlights of my life.”
Jared Pickard - Founder of ‘Be Here Farm’
“I worked with Eytan at Lynmar winery in Sebastopol over a couple of years in diverse and dynamic tasting room and winery gardens that demanded high quality work, and later visited the exuberant and extensive garden at Be Here Farm he built from a bare site. Eytan was dedicated and focused in projects and ongoing work, combining excellent organizational skills with creativity and artistry. I think he takes great pleasure in creating beautiful and efficiently functional landscapes for people to enjoy and has the knowledge to do that in a variety of situations.”
Kate Frey - International Garden Designer, Author & Educator
“I have known and consulted with Eytan over the past 12 years in my own endeavors with my permaculture homestead garden. He is my go to person when I have a question about anything ranging from practical applications like taking care of a specific fruit tree to more energetic questions regarding which biodynamic preparation or amendment to prepare or apply. Not only is Eytan very knowledgeable and accomplished in working magic and creating functional beauty with the earth, plants and food/medicines, he brings his kind and compassionate spirit to all that he touches including his human-to-human relationships. Eytan cares deeply about life and I trust his approach, character and follow through. He is a true ally to the living earth!”
