Meet Cindy Parkhurst, our trusty Farm Support Crewmember 👋 Cindy works behind the scenes to cultivate meaningful relationships with our farmers. We're grateful to have dedicated crewmembers like Cindy on our team to support our farmers and help them care for their girls. “I’ll drop anything for my farmers. They can call me at 6am or 11pm, and I’ll always answer. At the end of the day they’ve got the health of all those hens to look after, and it’s my job to help them out.” - Cindy, Farm Support Specialist Read more about Cindy: https://lnkd.in/djPZ5DGx

Last week, we launched the Spring session of our Leadership Eggcelerator people leader development program! The program kicked off with a two-day in-person interactive workshop taught by our own eggs-pert leaders. Participants attended carefully curated sessions to invoke learning and collaboration based on shared experiences—from mastering the art of effective communication to navigating the complexities of team dynamics. The secret ingredient to our leadership development recipe? A cohort-based model that had our leaders bonding, collaborating, and forging those cross-functional connections that make Vital Farms thrive. Our participants' diverse backgrounds and experiences created gold mines of wisdom and insight! The journey will continue with five months of virtual sessions and group work to solidify the valuable learnings. We can't wait to see our leaders' impact on the crew they support!
