Meet our Staff

Jesica Carleton [Community Member] Market Manager
Originally from the Boston area, and after spending periods of time in California, Minneapolis, Japan, and Alaska, Jesica relocated to Bend in 2014. Of the many things that attracted her to Bend, one of the biggest was the the close connection between the community and its local food producers. She immediately became involved in the locavore movement and is a huge fan of farm-to-table dinners where she has gotten to know her farmers and ranchers. With a huge amount of awe and admiration for the people who dedicate their lives to growing and creating healthy local products, Jesica is honored to be a part of this process.

Meet our Board
Marielle Slater [Community Member] Board President
Active member since 2017 I have always been an avid farmers market seeker. If I am at home or abroad, I always find the market; it is the life force of the community. Do you want to see what the locals are growing, eating, and celebrating together? Go find the local farmers market and become a part of that community- even if it’s only for an hour. Soon after I moved to Bend, I wanted to find a way to connect with and contribute to my new community. I joined the board in 2017 and in January 2020 became the Board president. I am here to serve and support the best representation of the mission of the Bend Farmers Market. |
