Brooke joins the Nutrition Connections team, with deep values in food access, nutrition, and the power of community. She comes to UNH Extension with a degree in medical biology and human nutrition from the University of New England. Brooke recenly returned from Oregon, where she spent two years as a FoodCorps AmeriCorps service member. In this role, she supported school gardens, taught hands-on nutrition and garden lessons, and worked closely with cafeteria staff to reinvision school breakfast and lunch set-up and menus. As a native to Rockingham County in New Hampshire, Brooke is eager to support nutrition programming here in her own state.
