Marissa Baron

Marissa Baron is the Operations Manager at Growing Justice Fund. In this role, she oversees the operations function and supports the Advisory Committee in executing the Fund’s mission. This includes creating and managing operational processes, planning, implementing, and executing a wide range of initiatives that align with the Board’s strategic goals and objectives. 

Growing Justice is a pooled fund co-designed by funders, farmers, advocates, food suppliers, purchasers, and community partners from Native and non-native communities nationwide. Growing Justice envisions a future in which Tribal, Indigenous, Black, Latinx, Asian, and immigrant people engaged in food markets as suppliers, producers, distributors, workers, and eaters at community-serving institutions are economically and physically thriving thanks in part to efforts by large community institutions to prioritize equitable good food procurement.
