Fresh headshots! Thank you @melbarlow for capturing these at @glynwoodorg .

At Glynwood, we deeply value the 332 families who are SNAP users that participate in our CSA, which is why we are making their CSA shares free of charge while continuing to pay the 27 farms providing those shares. We need your support to continue this essential work. Please consider making a donation at Glynwood.org to directly support this program and the people who need it most!

In 2023, I was so honored to receive National Audubon’s Rachel Carson Award. It was such a pleasure to celebrate this year’s recipient Elizabeth Kolbert in recognition of her outstanding writing that brings important attention to what is happening right now. #womeninconservation #annethompson

Excited to see how the captive insurance industry can support efforts to regionalize food systems. Join me on June 2nd, 2026 from 4:15pm-5:00pm to learn more about the importance of regional food systems everywhere. #bermuda

I went to Venice to surprise and support @melissamcgillstudio whose project Marea took my breath away. I didn’t expect that like her work, so many of the pieces at the @labiennale profoundly addressed our complicated relationship with the natural world. Leaving inspired to uplift artists who can move us to action. #weveonlygotthisonewildplanet

Thank you again to everyone at the Stanford Accelerator program for hosting me as a speaker. I’m so moved by the innovation this type of program offers its students to dream of.

President & CEO Kathleen Finlay (@katfinlay ) & Farm Director Nicole Scott, both of whom are featured in the film. Kathleen was recently awarded the Rachel Carson Award for Women in Conservation by the National Audubon Society, is an advisor at Regenerative California, a judge for Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability Accelerator, and serves a Co-Director of the Rome Sustainable Food Project at the American Academy of Rome, founded by Alice Waters. An experienced organizational leader, writer and network builder, she is particularly interested in empowering women and historically marginalized individuals to address our most pressing issues, especially humanity’s relationship with the natural world. Nicole’s curiosity and desire to learn about animal behavior and husbandry began while working at the National Zoo in Washington, DC. This led her to pursue her career in agriculture at Cornell University where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Animal Science. While at Cornell, Nicole began farming on a small hog operation in the Finger Lakes Region and was introduced to the non-profit sector as an intern at the Groundswell Center for Local Food and Farming. Nicole moved to New Zealand in 2018 to work on different sheep, beef, and deer operations that ranged in size from 1,000-hectare lowland to 18,000-hectare high country stations throughout the North and South Islands. 🚜🍿See you at the movies! #forkintheroaddoc #BIFF2026 #glynwoodfarm #regenerativeagriculture #documentaryfilm
