The Bulb

Meet Michelle! Next up on !

🌱 What brought you to The Bulb?
“I was drawn to The Bulb because of my previous experience with the UNCC Charlotte Harvest Exchange and interest in food access initiatives. I was also connected to this program through the Levine Scholars Program.”

✨ What are you most excited about?
“Getting to know The Bulb team and learning about the organization through my project!”

🍅 Favorite fruit or veggie?
Michelle couldn’t pick just one (honestly, relatable): tomatoes, apples, and yu choy!

📊 What project are you working on?
Michelle will be working with our data team to explore community needs and trends through our 2026 survey data, paired with hands-on experience at our mobile markets.

😸 Fun fact:
One of Michelle’s cats is named Bongji, which means “bag” in Korean. And you’ll never guess what her favorite toy is... 👜

Welcome to the team, Michelle! 💚

We’re having a great start to over here...

Eddie sent us almost 100 pounds of fresh broccoli heads this week (!!), plus smaller florets and broccolini varieties rolling in right behind them. Oh, AND plenty of rainbow chard, too!🥬

And how could we forget the A-MAZING haul from Lomax Farm last week? Andrew and Criss harvested some STUNNING beets, carrots, zucchini, and cabbage. What a lineup. 🥕🥬✨

This is peak “good food doing good things” energy: supporting local agriculture, eating seasonally, and keeping fresh, beautiful produce flowing through our community. Huge love and gratitude for our farm team who makes it happen. 💚
