NATIONAL YOUNG FARMERS COALITION

Stoni Tomson

Pronouns

I love to eat. One of my earliest memories is of my aunt spoon-feeding me and exclaiming, “What a good eater!” Beyond that, I know good food is sacred. As I grew up, though, I became aware of the ugly injustices of the industrial food system. I saw that I could join the movement of small-scale organic farmers and conscious eaters who are creating a delicious alternative, and that’s what I am doing at New Tradition Farm in Richmond, Vermont.
