The Community Farm Store Staff:

Cindy:

CINDY has been with the store since it moved to the Garage and is our full time Grocery Buyer. As well as spending oodles of time at the store she shares her passion for yoga and raises two teenagers part time. Life is full and Cindy believes that you should love your work and let it be your life, instead of always trying to separate the two. She is an avid organic gardener, (and by the way, has hung up her "part time" farmer plaque for now) and believes she is now "living the life that she always wanted..." hmmm And, there’s more to say about this amazing woman: To us, she is the medicine woman of the valley, the greens queen of the island, the cleansing guru of Cowichan ... but most important; she is the ordering chief of the Community Farm Store. Basically everything, other than produce, arrives in our store thanks to Cindy’s efforts. She has formed excellent relationships with all of our suppliers; and it is her we can thank for our incredible products, the vast variety and the great prices! Her collection of catalogues could surely sink a BC Ferry, and yet she always knows where to find what product and who has the best prices. With great integrity, she sources out the best of the best! Aside from her store, Cindy is mother to Ben, 16 and Hannah, 12. She has been in the health food business for 14 years, and has been working with the Community Farm Store since it moved from Glenora. Some of you might remember Cindy from her organic delivery service, On Route Organics; or from the three years she was selling her alternative baking and organic produce at the local Farmers Market. Cindy, you’ll all agree, is a very talented woman with a dynamic and colorful personality. Not only is it a privilege to work with her -- it’s a lot of fun!!!!
