I am a Turkish seed keeper/grower, farmer, and public scholar who works on restoration and preservation of the seeds of Turkey (Türkiye) on our small farm located in Reedsville, West Virginia, on the unceded land of Seneca people. The farm is a learning space and a gateway to exploring more than fifty food crops for their cultural significance, culinary uses, climate adaptability and significance related to food justice and food security as well as a space in which I build relations with plants and their stewards.
