Alex Bisset

Alex Bisset is an alumna of the Bachelor of Applied Science in Sustainable Agriculture Program, which she graduated from in April of 2022. Alex is interested in urban farming education and how this contributes positively to our communities, which led her to volunteer with organizations such as the Growing Chefs Society, Fresh Roots, and the Astoria Urban Farm. After completion of her degree, Alex worked as a farm assistant and later as the field trial manager at the KPU Teaching and Research Farm. In May of 2023, Alex was offered an opportunity to work at the KPU Teaching and Research Farm as the Outreach Coordinator. This position allows her to pursue public outreach and help connect the surrounding Richmond community with accessible information about growing food. Alex is running the volunteer program at the farm and establishing many exciting projects, including a project to extend the size of the learning garden for kids' camps and other educational activities.
