Manager

Allison is a long-time foodie and gardener, first developing her passion for local foods as the founding member of an organic garden at her high school in Delaware. Allison has traveled on over 5 continents and worked in gardens on 3: she has chased pigs in the Tuscan countryside, harvested bananas in India, and discovered the wonders of kale in the tundra known as Minnesota. Before working with Greenmarkets, Allison was a student at Macalester College, where she completed a BA in Anthropology and Environmental Studies. When not at market, Allison can be found fanatically knitting, pondering religion, or searching for ground cherries.
