Jenni Crain is a writer and local foods enthusiast who became aware of the connections between food and community when someone at the first food co-op where she volunteered explained the labels on some of the produce to her, demystifying forever the differences between organic, pesticide-free, and other growing methods.
Since then, she’s become a dedicated food storyteller and local foods advocate. She was honored to be the chapter’s community representative at Slow Food International’s 2016 Terra Madre conference in Italy and has been a member of the board ever since.
