Nora is originally from northeast Massachusetts but has lived in Nashville since 2013 when she arrived to complete a year of service in AmeriCorps. She became obsessed with sustainable agriculture during graduate school and has been growing food in some capacity ever since. She has worked on various local farms and in urban gardens, and is also a proud former TNFP Garden Intern! Since her internship Nora has worked for various nonprofits growing healthy food with and for the community and she is thrilled to be back at The Nashville Food Project to continue that work. When not growing food, Nora loves dabbling in a variety of active and creative hobbies like running, hiking, painting, playing music, or just hanging out with her cats and dog while re-watching Frasier for the one hundredth time.
