Benjamin Shorofsky

Ben brings close to a decade of project development, management, and facilitation experience working with a variety of nonprofit and for-profit organizations. Ben works in the nonprofit sector and as an independent consultant to food and farm businesses throughout the country through his own consultancy, Stepwell Strategies. In addition, Ben co-founded the Artisan Grain Collaborative, a parallel organization to CGA in the midwest, and served as the first program coordinator as the organization grew. Ben returned home to Baltimore in 2019 with his wife and dog, Marty where in his free time, he runs a pre-order bagel business, Back Alley Bagel. For the last few years, Ben has worked with our partners as a project administrator on our SARE-funded education program. As a board member, he would move from that role to supporting the organization more broadly on a volunteer basis.
