44 year old Matt Kofoed refers to himself as a back pocket plumber, which is a phrase coined in Aussie Rules Football circles that characterises a person with a blue collar work ethic and someone who gets the job done without any fanfare. Matt was actually a plumber, and actually a back pocket footballer recruited by the Collingwood Football Club in the 1990's thus fulfilling a childhood dream. Matt has been considered a "bit different" and someone who always asks a lot of questions, he doesn't accept the normal narrative just because it's normal. This trait of constant questioning served Matt when he was diagnosed with a tumor in his back that sent him into a completely different trajectory where he and wife Lisa are continuing to set themselves up on a sustainable 7 acres in the regional Victorian town of Winchelsea. Matt note's that “A healthy ecosystem aligned with nature creates living soil that produces nutritious food sustainably. You are what you eat”
