Rachel Goldman grew up near Laguna Beach, California, far from farm-life but with food close to her heart. She is currently a senior at New York University, studying Environmental Studies, Metropolitan Studies, and Spanish. Living in Murray Hill, Rachel found herself walking through the Union Square Greenmarket whenever possible on her way to class, simply to soak in the farmers market atmosphere. Since the environment and food are her two greatest passions, she'll be sure to enjoy each day at the markets!

A New Jersey native, Caroline Hiteshew discovered her passion for all things food and farming in the cornfields of Ohio while studying Anthropology at Kenyon College.  The more she learned, the more she realized that food touches everything she values in life: community engagement, proper stewardship of the land, and social justice and equality, to list just a few. After spending a season working on a farm in the Appalachian hills of southern Ohio, living off the grid and breaking bread with her Amish neighbors, Caroline was thrilled to find a job in the big city where she’s still privy to stories of runaway cows and mischievous goats. When not at markets, she enjoys cooking, dancing, reading, writing, and discovering new music.
