Shea's Interview with Abbie Nelson

1.     What are some ways in the past you have tried to increase membership and were those strategies successful?

 Workshops, annual winter conference, tabling at various events in the state

2.     In what ways do you engage with your current members? How would you like them to become more involved with NOFA?

 E-news, newsletter, Facebook. We need to engage them in issues and in their regions

3.     How would you like us to tell NOFA’s story? Blogging? Interviews? 

 We need more stories—whether these are available through blogging or via the newsletter

4.     NOFA encompasses a wide variety of the Vermont farming community, is there a specific aspect of NOFA that you want us to focus on more than others? 

 We just need to rotate between all of our programs: farmer services, farm to institution, direct markets and food access, education

5.     We noticed that your organization doesn’t use Instagram as a social media platform, do you think creating one/using social media in general will help tell NOFA’s story?


No idea, I don’t use Instagram.
