Jessica's career path took an unexpected turn when, after applying for an administrative position with the Town of Holly Springs, her skills led her to the role of farmers market coordinator. Now, as a Certified Farmers Market Manager (CFMM) with nearly a decade of experience at the Holly Springs Farmers Market, she has cultivated a thriving community space. Her communications degree and nonprofit background have equipped her with the diverse skills necessary to manage and expand the market. Jessica is deeply committed to addressing food insecurity, strengthening the local food system, and supporting local producers. When she's not at the market on Saturday morning it’s likely because she’s traveling to a punk or ska music festival.
