Alyssa Kassner

Youth Education Coordinator, Soil Born Farms
Alyssa has always had a passion for the environment and became very invested in environmental and farm based education while getting her Master’s Degree at Antioch University in New Hampshire.  She has farmed with at-risk teenagers in New York, worked as a Farm-Based Educator in Vermont and as a Field Guide for a therapeutic gardening program for teenagers on the Big Island of Hawaii. Alyssa loves that at Soil Born Farms she gets to work with the land as well as teach the students about the farm and environment in a fun and meaningful way. Alyssa has always had a deep connection to the natural world and it brings her great joy to share the wonders of gardening and nature with others.
