Cyril has worked with Farmer Foodshare in various capacities for over a decade. A longtime Food Ambassador Teacher, he’d go to schools and lead in-classroom product testing with kids. Cyril represented Farmer Foodshare at events and cooked for many of our early fundraisers. Once a buyer at Camp Chestnut Ridge, he sourced fresh produce from Farmer Foodshare as one of our largest customers. 

Cyril eventually joined our team as a Food Hub Distribution Associate, and is one of several team members out on the road picking up locally grown fruits and vegetables from our farmers and delivering orders around the Triangle throughout the week. As of 2024, he is now a full-time employee and enjoys bringing his logistical expertise to Farmer Foodshare and helping make good food more accessible to people who need it.  

An individual with many passions, Cyril is a veteran Santa in the greater Triangle community, a woodworker (and recent toy-making apprentice), and the Minister of Music at Duke Memorial United Methodist. An avid cook, he loves learning from people and is good at replicating various cuisines. Mexican is his favorite and has yet to acheive a good banana pudding. Cyril has a special heart for bringing joy-filled spirit to those with disabilities, and he and his wife are dedicated foster parents.
