Cathy Verost - Development Manager

Cathy VerostAs the Development Manager at the FARM Institute beginning in Fall 2008, I am excited to not only expand my understanding of development work, but also to become more knowledgeable on sustainability, farming and educating young people on the importance of caring for our earth and life. The mission and values of The FARM Institute coupled with the expertise of the staff and the positive energy of the children's enjoyment make this my ideal working environment.

My educational background includes a Masters in Public Administration and a decade-long career working in non-profit organizations. At the same time, I have had the opportunity to work for several summers as a landscaper and gardener. I am motivated by the challenge of learning new skills and ideas and I am always seeking a new project to begin.

My downtime includes walks/hikes with my dog Savannah, reading, helping out at the horse barn with my family, and my biggest passion, which is traveling.  Traveling offers the opportunity to learn more about other cultures and about myself, as well.

I look forward to learning at The FARM Institute and working with great staff and the community.
