Meet Everett Campbell, a member of the Community Food Strategies team! 🌱

Everett brings a passion for gender and racial equity and for programs shaped by the communities and places they serve. As a Program Coordinator with MDC Rural Forward’s Rural Prosperity and Investment team, they support rural community development across the South through coordination, policy research, and facilitation.

Their background in social work, housing outreach, and connecting shelter residents with locally grown food through community gardens helped spark their commitment to rural prosperity and community-centered food systems.

Everett joined our team in April and calls Durham home, along with their two cats. We’re grateful for the experience, care, and perspective they bring to this work!

Everett, Nathalie, and Ali recently attended the Nourish to Flourish Conference Fall Convening in Greenville, NC. Thank you to Resourceful Communities for bringing people together to explore the idea of food as medicine.

One of our favorite activities invited everyone to share the story behind their passion for food work. Hearing what brought others to this work helped us make meaningful connections with people from communities across North Carolina.
