Bijou Square asks: Where were you before you lived here?

Skye: Our headquarters were in Westport, CT

Bijou Square: What brought you here?

Skye: It made sense to come to Bridgeport and be closer to the Nourishing Neighborhoods programs we are running, as well as our Healthy Bridgeport Alliance partners.

Bijou Square: What do you do in Bridgeport?

Skye: We work on our Connecticut and national programs to propel our mission forward "to nourish neighborhoods by supporting increased production and access to healthy, fresh, and affordable locally grown food for the well-being of all."

Bijou Square: What’s one spot you could be in Bridgeport all day and why?

Skye: At our headquarters on State Street. Seriously. We really love our work. But with breaks for some great food– Two Boots Pizza, Tiago's, Amici Miei for sandwiches, salads and their white bean side dish, the beautiful Epernay Bistro, or Toppings for cupcakes, to name just a few!

Bijou Square: What do you think we’re missing here?

Skye: We are trying to improve healthy access to healthy, affordable, local food in some of the "food deserts" in Bridgeport neighborhoods.
