Larkey Moore

I found out about Planting Justice thru a friend, and was so excited to find out about a career opportunity that allowed me to work with plants. I love playing in the dirt and I’ve always been in the garden, since I was a kid. My grandmother was a gardener, and I come from a long line of farmers. I guess it’s just in my blood.

I believe in food sovereignty and equal opportunity for all, formerly incarcerated or not. But there’s so much discrimination against formerly incarcerated folks, and often it's a little hidden and subtle, so folks can pretend they aren't doing it, but it is so obvious and real. And so I really believe in what Planting Justice represents.
