Project Description

Tisha Sawyer, a proud Navy Veteran, hails from the west coast but fell in love with Virginia when she moved here in 2004 to work as a chef at the Williamsburg Inn. Her professional experience also includes linguistics, teaching, administration, retail, and hospitality, as well as small business entrepreneurship.  She has managed both the Surry County and Hopewell Farmers Markets.  In addition to her love of farmers markets, she enjoys gardening, farming, food preservation, cheesemaking, and all manner of crafting.  When not devoting herself to her work, she can be found tinkering on her tiny house on wheels, creating all manner of handmade items, or traveling to new and exciting places.
