Katherine Broughton
Annual & Perennial Manager
In January 2025, Katherine assumed the role of Annual & Perennial Manager. Previously, as Greenhouse Production Lead, Katherine spent her time at Cedar Circle monitoring and caring for plants in the greenhouses and well as managing our retail veggie and herb starts! Her position allowed her to see the entire growth process of her plants, from starting veggies from seed to harvesting later in the season, and often included specialized tasks such as grafting tomatoes.
Katherine moved to Quechee, VT in the summer of 2022, and joined the team at Cedar Circle soon after! She is originally from Athens, OH, and started her farming experience there with one season on an organic farm, followed by two years in a nursery that specializes in native and medicinal plants. She completed the Medicinal Plant Conservation Certificate program at United Plant Savers Botanical Sanctuary in Rutland, OH, and often spends time outside of work putting those skills to use. Katherine is regularly out hiking with her dog, and loves to teach herself new things. Currently, she is learning about food preservation, and is experimenting with growing oyster and lion’s mane mushrooms at home!
