The Farmers Market has a new Market Manager
Additional Information
After an extensive review of many qualified candidates the Woodland Park Farmers Market decided on a single candidate to replace Judy Crummett after 30 years of service with the Farmers Market. Lara Maas (Shadwick) is joining the Woodland Park Farmers Market as the marketing manager starting 1 March 2021. She has already started the process of learning the job from Judy Crummett. She draws from extensive experience in healthcare, marketing, and community building. She has a passion for local, healthy food and the community that comes together through a regular open market. Lara has the experience of working with a large Farmers Market in Missoula Montana where one market became three markets.
Lara lived in Colorado for 20 years then moved to Montana for 10 years. She currently lives in Colorado Springs with her two children ages 10 and 17. Lara is in the process of fixing up her dad’s house in Woodland Park and plans to make Woodland Park her permanent home. Lara has a BS in Biology and Psychology and an MBA in Marketing and International Business. She also has her own website, www.healingheartsart.com. Healing Hearts Art is an artist committed to improving the health and wellbeing of people interacting with their art.
While health and bringing nutritious food to people in our community is her passion she is also an accomplished athlete. She played basketball at UCCS and was an amateur triathlete qualifying and competing in national and world championship triathlons.
We all feel lucky that Lara decided to take over the Market Manager job. During the summer market (starting 4 June) please come to the pavilion and say hello to Lara.
