From planted seeds
While cooking for 20-hour days to feed the thousands who gathered after George Floyd’s killing, Bryant Jones was struck by an idea that grew into a garden ... and a community.
Bryant Jones is a plant science senior in the College of Food, Agricultural and Natural Resource Sciences, at the University of Minnesota, and a cofounder of the Twin Cities Relief Initiative.
