      Director In Memorium

      Dorothy Peterson, Founding Board Member, Educator, and Friend
      February 7, 1940 – April 7, 2016

      It is with heavy hearts that Yolo Farm to Fork mourns the passing of Dorothy Peterson, a founding member of Davis Farm to School Program and Yolo Farm to Fork. She was a champion of garden-based learning for every child. A public school teacher for 37 years, Dorothy was a shining light for our community and knew how to get things done. Her energy and spirit were contagious. She will be missed.
