F'ing Up with Scott Landers - S2 E12
Scott Landers grew up on a farm in Texas, forced to grow up quickly and tend to the needs of the farm. Some days that meant driving the tractor and some days that meant ditching the broken down tractor to walk 40 acres back home. This early education prepared Scott for hard work with grit and determination, but it didn’t come without its challenges as there was a learning curve when it came to working with others as opposed to always “cowboying it” on his own.
About Scott Landers
Scott Landers began his lifelong fascination with water and food in Northeast Texas, where he was born and raised on the sixth-generation Landers Family Farm. He has since worked as a civil engineer, product director, and independent consultant to water and food organizations.
Scott is Co-Founder and CEO at Figure 8. Since 2019, Figure 8 has worked with over 300 restaurants across the country to build more sustainable food delivery systems. He holds a Bachelor's Degree in Environmental Engineering from MIT and lives in New York City.
