Rachael joined CGCF in April 2013 after serving as Sustainable Nantucket’s Development Coordinator. Rachael fell in love with Washington, DC and its budding urban agriculture movement while studying for a Master’s degree in Global Environmental Policy at American University. After working on a sustainable agro-forestry farm in Belize and with an organization rebuilding the local food system on the island of Nantucket, she is excited to use her skills to further food justice in the heart of the city. Rachael earned her B.A in International Affairs from the University of Georgia. You can reach her at rachael@commongoodcityfarm.org.

Anita initially became interested in sustainable agriculture and the food movement when she helped to develop a farm on the roof of a supportive housing residence for formerly homeless, mentally ill adults in Brooklyn, NY. She studied Ecological Horticulture at the Center for Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems in Santa Cruz, CA. Anita is committed to repairing the broken food system through increasing food access, education, and community involvement. You can reach her at anita@commongoodcityfarm.org.

Elizabeth is a native of the DC area and happy to be part of Common Good City Farm. As youth coordinator, she has found a way to combine her passion for local food and sustainability with her experience working with children. Elizabeth thoroughly enjoyed working for Common Good's inaugural summer youth program, especially the chance to observe high school students trying new vegetables for the first time.
