Manager
Laura grew up in the Hudson Valley and spent her summers working at a dairy farm in Poughkeepsie. Throughout college she became interested in food politics, farmworker rights, and community gardening. GrowNYC Greenmarkets are a combination of the many food justice facets that she hopes to continue engaging with and learning about. She's also enjoyed the bragging rights that come from working outside in all types of weather.
