Montana Voices: Voter places support behind Slotnick for Missoula commissioner

I enthusiastically support Josh Slotnick who is running as a Democrat for the Board of Missoula County Commissioners. Josh has been my friend, farmer, and colleague for nearly 20 years. Without a doubt, he is one of the most hard-working and civic-minded people I know.

Josh has deep roots in Missoula and rural areas. After growing up in North Dakota, he moved here at 18 to attend University of Montana. He later served in the Peace Corps, and earned graduate degrees in agricultural extension and in ecological horticulture.

Then, 25 years ago, he returned to Missoula, started an organic farm with his wife, raised three children, and became an educator. Josh is probably best known in the community as the head, heart, and hands behind the much-loved, PEAS farm.

Josh cares deeply about this place and the people who live here. Now, he wants to contribute in a new way, as an elected official. You can learn more by following this link. As Commissioner, he will bring a strong record of collaboration and a can-do spirit that we clearly need in politics today. Never afraid of hard work, Josh will dig in and get things done. Please join me in supporting Slotnick for County Commissioner.
