About Abigail

Abigail is part of our customer support team, working to maintain a welcoming and inclusive application process for frontline workers applying to the Farm and Food Workers Relief Program in 14 states throughout the Northeast.

Before joining Pasa, Abigail worked at a variety of urban garden non-profits committed to increasing local food justice in both Easton and Boston. As a part of completing her degree in Environmental Studies and Data Science, Abigail is writing their honors thesis on guerrilla gardening and cultivating land as resistance. Outside of food systems, Abigail is passionate about and has experience working in Indigenous rights activism and collective organizing for community empowerment. They have been engaged with Pasa for many years, completing their Diversified Vegetable Pre-Apprenticeship program, attending the annual conference, and sharing meals at regional potlucks. Abigail looks forward to joining an organization that is committed to supporting the backbone of our agricultural systems in equitable and accessible ways!

Originally from Minnesota, Abigail now considers Easton, Pennsylvania home and spends their time at community gardens, making dinner with friends, and looking at the sky as often as possible.
