Saad works as a 'Senior Manager Program and Research' for an Agriculture reform project by HBL. He holds a Bachelor’s degree from LUMS and has a Master's of Public Administration from the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs.

Ali is a graduate of NYU. To the world he is an engineer, an environmentalist and a fledgling entrepreneur. At heart though, he is a farmer and a foodie going back to his roots to combine his love for the world and for food through evolving, sustainable means. 

Ali graduated from LUMS with a degree in Management Science. He believes that in order to tackle the escalating food and climate crises, other forms of human existence have to be imagined, ones in which we learn from nature.

Mulla Nasrudin's father was reprimanding his son for being a lazy good-for-nothing.

"When I was your age," he said, "I worked sixteen hours a day to learn the business."

"I am very proud of you, Dad," replied Mulla Nasrudin. "If it had not been for your ambition and perseverance, I might have had to do the same."
