In January, Roots said a hui hou to long-time staff member and friend Sarah Kunkel. Sarah wore many hats during her 13-years with Roots, such as evaluator, data manager, bookkeeper, office manager, cupcake chef and grants manager. Sarah played a huge role in developing our Roots Food Hub and financial and data systems to track dozens of farmers and hundreds of purchases. We wish her well as she pursues her passion for archival research on the Big Island! Photo courtesy of Roots.
