Gregg Stevens is the Certification Process Specialist for Vermont Organic Farmers. He earned a B.S. in Biology from the University of New Hampshire and earned his teaching certificate after completing a post-baccalaureate program at Rhode Island College. After teaching high school science in Rhode Island for eight years, he moved to Vermont in 2003 to pursue his interest in certified organic agricultural production methods. He has worked at several diverse operations, gaining experience with organic vegetable and fruit, grain, field crop, ruminant, poultry and maple production. In 2010 he left his position as farm manager at Merck Forest and Farmland Center in Rupert to join Vermont Organic Farmers as a Certification Specialist.
