Hello, I am Lia! I am joining the farm with a background in youth development and program management and a love for community building, art, and learning from nature. I most recently was the Program Manager for the Diller Teen Tikkun Olam Awards and had previously developed curriculum and managed city-funded arts and literacy after school and summer camp programs in New York City. I live with five chickens, four adult friends, two six-year olds and half a dozen fruit trees! I find great connection to my Jewish ancestry and spirituality through music, my grandmother’s recipes, sharing food with others, dancing, and long thoughtful conversations.
