Rebecca Shimp Martin

Rebecca lives in suburban Southern Maryland, where she turns her driveway into a container garden every spring. Her passion is creative solutions, whether it involves fresh produce or nonprofit communications.

She learned to garden while growing up in rural Virginia, where she also milked goats and fed chickens. Goats are still one of her favorite animals, and she never turns down the opportunity to scratch one between the horns.

Her work has led her to build connections with Mennonite farming communities in Pennsylvania and Maryland and she has almost ten years of experience working for religious nonprofits in roles that allowed her to explore the world of communications and digital design. She has also worked as a content writer for Menno Media, Inc.
