Jodi Verbanic
Prior to the founding of Cherry Valley Community Farm, Jodi worked in the fields of environmental management and horticulture, and also taught environmental science at the primary, secondary, and undergraduate levels. She also worked for several years as a professional gardener for clients throughout the Pittsburgh area.


The melding of her interests and skills in these fields led to the formation of Urban Roots CSA in 2002, which then evolved into Cherry Valley Community Farm over the next few years.

When not directing on-farm operations, Jodi busies herself with the planning for future programming at the farm.
