Introducing, CVU student, potter, and founder of the CVU Empty Bowl event, Teryn Hytten! After attending the annual UVM Empty Bowl dinners since childhood, Teryn wanted to bring this tradition to CVUHS. Teryn's passion for pottery, and her compassion for helping Vermont community members struggling with food insecurity prompted her to start the annual CVU Empty Bowl fundraiser in 2024.
