Show Notes

Under Casey’s leadership, Galveston’s Own Farmers Market has increased food-access among high-risk populations on Galveston Island through implementation of SNAP, specialty WIC programming, free cooking classes and a rapidly-growing school gardens program. Since 2017, Casey has also served as a City Councilwoman in the City of La Marque. Her life’s work revolves around the value of the natural environment on community well-being and empowering citizens to take control of their own health and claim their role within their own community.
