Commitee Members: Suzi Schuenemann

 As a child, the pleasure of locally grown and produced food began at the cheese factory and farm of Suzi’s Swiss grandparents. Her appreciation of food also led to helping her son and daughter-in-law open the Alder Wood Bistro (Sequim), the first and only local, organic, seasonal restaurant on the Olympic Peninsula. She understands and deeply values the importance of preserving farmland to produce food, enhance the quality of life, and protect rural environments.

Her careers have included property management, executive Director of a nonprofit, songwriter/recording artist, teacher, and current work as a Realtor for John L. Scott, Sequim. While living in California, she was involved with the Marin Agricultural Land Trust. She moved to Sequim in 2003.
