Cassandria Campbell is the daughter of immigrant parents and was raised in Boston’s Dorchester and Roxbury neighborhoods. Growing up, she became involved in the urban farming movement, helping to transform vacant lots into productive urban green spaces. She earned an undergraduate degree in Economics from Swarthmore and a Master’s in City Planning from MIT, which later ignited her career in urban planning. Cassandria has traveled and lived in Ghana, Brazil, and Ecuador and observed the availability of healthy, fast-casual food options.
Fresh Food Generation in Codman Square was born to provide her neighborhood with high-quality food options. Fresh Food Generation has become a journey into her Caribbean culture and a love letter to her neighborhood. She continues to inspire her community to eat and live well.
Cassandria has served on the board for The Food Project and Heading Home. She teaches entrepreneurship to early-stage food businesses at Commonwealth Kitchen as an Entrepreneur in Residence.
