By harnessing the purchasing power of schools and institutions, empowering local farmers and ranchers, and developing infrastructure to connect the two, Ecotrust is helping build a resilient regional food economy that nourishes communities and renews the resources on which we depend. Key projects include the Redd on Salmon Street (@reddonsalmon), the NW Food Buyers’ Alliance (@nwfoodbuyers), and FoodHub (@food_hub). Amanda has a master’s degree in integrated marketing communications from Northwestern University, and spent 15 years in private enterprise before joining Ecotrust in 2010.
