About Abigail

Abigail is helping to lead our Farm and Food Workers Relief program, distributing federal pandemic-related relief payments to workers in 14 states across the northeast.

Before joining Pasa, she was the Outreach Coordinator for the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service in Pennsylvania, with a focus on reaching Hispanic and underserved farmers. Abigail has also worked as an educator, having taught social studies and Spanish within school walls at Sugar Valley Rural Charter School and outside of the traditional classroom with the Pennsylvania Migrant Education Program.

Abigail is also a farmer, and she particularly enjoys producing natural fibers by raising sheep for wool and growing flax for linen. She also keeps bees and a small poultry flock.
