More About The Guests
Autumn Smith
The story of Paleovalley is a love story. Autumn and Chas Smith, co-founders, met in 2007, fell in love, and got married. Autumn suffered acute digestive issues since she was a teenager and numerous experts failed to offer solutions that worked. Very concerned, Chas took matters into his own hands. His extensive research led him to the paleo diet. Autumn started out as a fitness trainer with the Tracy Anderson Method and while she looked very fit, she wasn’t well. Autumn had digestive issues, breakouts and anxiety that plagued her daily. It wasn’t until she ditched processed foods and discovered the healing power of whole foods that Autumn truly felt vibrant. Paleovalley and Wild Pastures, were founded with the goal of inspiring others to find their radiance and to provide the organic whole food products that would make it possible and realistic in our busy, modern world.
