Shauna Barrows

Shauna has been conducting ecosystem restoration and land conservation work in the Islands since 2017, and transitioned into being a full-time resident in 2020. She brings her background in education, community and political organizing, and land conservation with her to join the Home Trust board. As a working class Island renter, Shauna is acutely aware of the need for affordable, living housing on the Island that is balanced with environmental constraints and community concerns. She is currently a member of the Island Verse Literary Collective, a literary non-profit focused on community-building via poetic and cultural engagement, and avidly continues her land stewardship work.
