The Sugarsnap Team
Abbey Duke - Founder & Managing Partner
Abbey grew up in a small town in Iowa and went to college in Minnesota. She has lived in Vermont since 1994, and has had an indirect career path that has included work as a breakfast cook, wildlife field research technician and a newspaper reporter. Grounding her life has always been a passion for food, cooking and gardening. In early 2002, she left her job as an editor and writer at Gardener’s Supply in Burlington to enter "Abbey Duke University". Her goal was to learn the skills necessary to start a business that involved growing produce and selling it's end product. She worked on a vegetable farm in Addison County, spent 4 months on a permaculture project in Costa Rica and took numerous business planning workshops. She opened Sugarsnap in December 2003 with two business partners, and has been intimately involved in all aspects of the business, from cooking to bookkeeping to customer service. She lives in Burlington with her partner and two young daughters.

Much of Rob’s management experience has been helping companies develop and execute strategic plans at various growth stages, including hands-on experience managing cross-functional processes to commercialize new products and services. Rob received his B.S. in Psychology from Arizona State University and MBA from the University of Washington. He is the father of four wonderful kids and wants the work he does to serve as an example for them to consider as they grow up.
