Fiona grew up in the rolling fields and forests of Caledon Ontario, treaty land long stewarded by the Huron-Wendat, Haudenosaunee, Mississauga, and Anishnabek Nations. She has a degree in computer engineering from Queen’s University and worked in the precision agriculture industry as a software developer, automating greenhouses and generating routes for semi-autonomous tractors. Fiona started volunteering with the EGP’s Queen Mary Sharing Garden in 2024, and never looked back! She is delighted to return for her third year with the EGP and second season at Loutet Farm as Project Coordinator 🙂 You can catch her out in the fields nerding out about soil science, thinking of silly puns while writing up the weekly newsletter, or at the farmers’ market chatting about the importance of local food security. When she’s not at the farm, you’ll find her tending to her beehives, fishing at the lake, or hiking in the beautiful Coast Salish mountains.
