Alexandra Spring, Co-Chair
Alex is an attorney in Montpelier, Vermont. She is dedicated to farming and animal husbandry practices that support biodiversity. On an average weekend you can find her reading with her toes in a river or cooking elaborate meals for any occasion. Alex was drawn to Slow Food for the simple power of the mission: to pursue a food system that is good, clean and fair. To her, Slow Food means respect for food cultures, for ecosystems and for all living beings.
