Susie Fox MS, RDN
​Director and Founder of Garden to Table Nutrition

After graduating from Stanford University, Susie Fox worked in outdoor-education and as a classroom science teacher. She obtained the gold standard National Board Certification in Early Adolescent Sciences in 2000. While working in the schools, she wanted to find better ways to feed kids so she enrolled in Bastyr University's Master's in Nutrition Program. 

After graduating from Bastyr, she personally experienced how a shortage of internships impacted students. While still an intern in a distance internship program with Oakwood University in 2010, she was determined to "do something to fix the problem." She has also seen how disconnected nutrition education can be from the growing and cooking of food and knew that creating experiential learning opportunities for interns would create leaders in nutrition who could then use those skills to teach others. 

Susie has, since, been acting as a preceptor for interns in dietetic programs since she became an RD, and has helped to grow the volunteer and WWOOF programs at Songaia. This has included nutrition students, sustainable systems students, education students, and Willing Workers on Organic Farms. 

Read more about her journey to start the Garden To Table Nutrition Internship in the July 2019 issue of Today's Dietitian.
