An Invitation from Backyard Growers
We’re unveiling big changes, exciting new goals and a vision for the future tonight at 5 p.m. But before tonight’s party, we want to share the announcement that Associate Director of Community Programs Anna Swanson is headed for new pastures at Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association. It’s bittersweet, as she’s been so essential to our growth and success. But, we’re thrilled to share that we’ll be welcoming J. Harrison as Interim Program Director. J. officially joins Backyard Growers after 13 years at The Food Project and behind-the-scenes support of our work since the very start.
Click here to meet J., and stop by our HQ at 271 Main Street from 5 – 7 p.m. to toast the future and learn more about our vision for the next three years at Backyard Growers.
You’ve been our roots, now we’re spreading our wings.
You helped us get here and now we want to share where we’re going. We’ll share our vision for the future at a wine and cheese reception celebrating and saying thank you to our fantastic community. Join us to learn what’s next as we tackle our mission to build a healthy, connected, environmentally sustainable community in Gloucester and beyond.
