Sophie Strauss-Jenkins

Sophie grew up in Southern France, and has been working in sustainable food production since high school. She is majoring in Women and Gender Studies at Smith College, focusing on ‘post’-colonial systems of international trade and production. She is interested in how food became inaccessible to some and overabundant for others. At Grow Food Northampton, she helps at the Giving Garden, which she finds the perfect get-away from school.
