Welcome to Earth Guardian Academy – ​My name is Jen Jones, and I am a Chocolate maker with with a BS in Psychology. I have worked for over 20 years in HR and IT Management. I am a Certified ChatGPT expert through the Blockchain Council and since 2020 I have now been immersed in the craft of Tree-to-Bar Hawaii Chocolate, combining my passion for chocolate with my training and leadership development background.

​​

In 2020, I also created the Earth Guardian Academy to teach others how to garden and how to work with Tarot and Astrology as a part of gardening. All the Earth Guardian resources I’ve created over the years – from sustainability practices to nurturing a deeper connection with nature – are still available on the Earth Guardian Academy Page in the Blog Section. They’re here for you, always. 

 

In 2022, I became a Certified Ayurvedic Nutrition Coach, and together Ethan and I expanded our chocolate line and made Big Island Botanicals™ Chocolate Bars with adaptogenic mushrooms and other helpful inclusions. 

​​​

In 2023, after nearly 10 years of suffering, Ethan Swift, my love and partner in this adventure, had to have 2 spine surgeries (titanium implants are no joke), and through that Ethan has still been the powerhouse behind Island Sharks, our chocolate company, and the founder of the Chocolate Sommelier School.  And I am proud to be a 2024 cohort graduate of the Chocolate Sommelier School as a Chocolate Sommelier. I am excited to step into a mentorship role, helping new chocolate and cacao enthusiasts embark on their journeys.​​​

​

In 2025, I will be zooming in on chocolate here at the Earth Guardian Academy, taking a closer look at how this ancient medicine is our Earth Guardian, without cacao, our Earth would not be the same.
