Kerrigan Spaven
Environmental Educator
If you visit Rockwood Park, you may see Kerrigan hard at work - tending the garden plots, caring for the animals in the nature center, or teaching programs in our outdoor classroom.
Known for her kindness and enthusiasm, Kerrigan always steps up with a positive attitude, no matter the task, including going above and beyond to make the garden plots better for our community gardeners.
