Community Education Manager

Holland Code:

Aider

Working in agri-food is so rewarding. Everyone needs to eat, so if I can help someone better understand where their food comes from, how it is produced and sold, then I feel like I have done my job! It is extremely important for youth to understand where their food comes from because they are the next generation of consumers.

Lauren Peters Withrow, Dalhousie University, Faculty of Agriculture

I teach people where their food comes from and help them understand how agriculture can be more sustainable.

I promote a broad understanding of agriculture, food, and research to educators, students, community groups, and the public.
