Announcing our new Executive Director

Please join us in welcoming Luz Miranda!

Luz brings more than a decade of experience leading programs that center sustainability and connection. Her leadership opens the door to new possibilities: strengthening our fundraising efforts, and our fiscal health over the long term. She is looking forward to connecting with members in December and in the new year.

In her words:

“I am honored to join the remarkable NOFA/Mass community. This is a pivotal moment for our shared work to build healthy soils, nourish food systems, and ensure equitable access. I am inspired by NOFA/Mass’s unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship and soil justice across Massachusetts.

My experience leading mission-driven programs and fostering partnerships grounded in equity will guide my work with NOFA/Mass. I bring to this role a collaborative mindset and a deep respect for the land, shaped by my upbringing. I am committed to honoring the organization’s rich history while helping to cultivate a vibrant, inclusive, and resilient future for the next generation of growers and advocates.

The strength of NOFA/Mass lies in the dedication and engagement of its community. I look forward to working alongside you and connecting in the fields, gardens, and community spaces you care for as we grow together toward a healthier and more equitable future.”
