Friends of the Fields Sequim
Board Member: Tom Harris 

Exposed to the need for farmland preservation in the late 1970's while growing up in New England, Tom witnessed the farm upon which his grandfather grew up in Connecticut sold for a housing development and observed the model of successful family farms in New Hampshire and Vermont. A teacher for 14 years, Tom currently teaches 3rd through 6th grade at the Five Acre School in Sequim.  

Tom first came to the Olympic Peninsula in 1985 to work as a seasonal backcountry ranger in Olympic National Park, a job he continued each summer until 1994. Tom has a Master's Degree in Agricultural History.  In addition to serving on the board of Friends of the Fields he is Secretary of the Olympic Youth Soccer Association.
