Shelly Crack is a community dietitian with the Northern Health Authority who has worked on Haida Gwaii for the last 15 years.  She spent the first part of her career travelling to a number of Indigenous communities across northern BC from Haida Gwaii to the Gitxsan Territory.  Shelly had a strong pull to local community food work after the birth of her first daughter in 2009.  After returning from a maternity leave she began to focus on local food in schools, salad bar programs and getting local food into hospitals.  Since then, Shelly has been working with local, provincial and national partners to support schools, hospitals, and other programs to serve local and traditional food safely.  Shelly is the mother of 2 amazing children and enjoys yoga, food and fun.
