Jennifer Rippey
“I first moved to Sandy in 1997 with my family, took a short detour back to Gresham and returned to Sandy for good 16 years ago. I joined AntFarm during COVID as a case manager, ready to learn more about myself and grow as a person. I have discovered skills I did not know I had and have been part of many moments of youth growth and accomplishment.”
Jennifer keeps day-to-day work running as our Operations Manager and also serves as the Market Manager for the Mount Hood Farmers Market. Her background includes 15 years in early education, which built a strong foundation for community service and organization-wide support.
She is proud of growing the Mount Hood Farmers Market with more vendors, food trucks, and artists, and of her volunteer leadership with youth organizations. Outside of work, she snowboards, crafts, hikes, and camps with her family.
