Lydia Hatfield, Executive Assistant I am thrilled to be moving from volunteer and workshare member with Poughkeepsie Farm Project to employee! I'm coming into this work with a background in design, community wealth building and housing justice, and it feels very right to be integrating that journey with a focus on land and food justice. I am so looking forward to learning from and alongside my amazing colleagues as we grapple with what equity truly looks like in our field and how to advance that in our community. -Lydia Hatfield, Executive Assistant Madeline Henriquez, Executive Director In leading Poughkeepsie Farm Project, I bring my experience not just in nonprofit and social entrepreneurship, but also from growing up in public housing with food insecurity. All of this experience informs my leadership: compassionate, inclusive, and efficient. I'm thankful to my known and unknown ancestors who’ve guided me to do this work at PFP, situated on Delaware Nation, Delaware Lenape Tribe and Stockbridge-Munsee Mohican ancestral land. I look forward to continuing the depth and breadth of our impact, increasing access to education and farm fresh food, and towards building a more just and sustainable food system here in the Hudson Valley. -Madeline Henriquez, Executive Director
