Danielle Sidor
Community Garden and CSA Manager
Danielle's background is primarily in production oriented, diversified vegetable farming. Danielle finds great joy in the ways that food brings people together. Some of my best and deepest relationships have been build around local food and farming. Danielle's time outside of work is spent enjoying the fruits of her labor (she loves to cook!). She is the happiest outside, and when she's not out in the gardens, you can find her adventuring with her pup Yoti (biking, hiking, finding a good secret swim spot, backpacking, etc.), traveling on the off season, and spending time with dear friends.
