Bio: Devin Loughead Folks is a graduate of Acadia University with a BSc in Environmental Science, rounded out by quite a few courses in Biology, Mathematics, and Fine Arts. She has recently come to terms with the fact that all of her passions revolve around writing and her strengths lie in communicating ideas by simplifying the seemingly complicated ideas within science, sustainability, and environmentalism. Her job as Information Booth and Curiosity Coordinator at the Wolfville Farmers' Market allows her time and space to grow these passions, skills, and quite a few of her other interests. She hopes to raise her own chickens, write a cookbook, and run for public office over the next decade.
