In December, after 16 years at Farm Fresh RI, Co-Executive Director Sheri Griffin steps down. In Sheri’s time at Farm Fresh RI, the organization has grown from a student-led project in shared office space in a basement at Brown University to an organization with a staff of 50 and a newly built 60,000 square-foot food hub in the Valley neighborhood of Providence. Sheri has helped to grow Farm Fresh from a small group with good intentions and limited resources into a nationally recognized leader in the good food movement.
The Farm Fresh Board is pleased to announce that Jesse Rye will become the organization’s Executive Director starting in 2023. Jesse’s vision and decisive leadership ensure that our mission, financial objectives, and focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion will drive Farm Fresh RI toward continued success.
