Description
Hi! My name is Amanda Hemminger and I'm 24 years old, currently living in Brooklyn, NY. I've spent the past few years lovingly studying urban ecology, feminist ecology, soil science and food justice with my journalism and environmental science degree. Recently, I've worked full seasons on urban farms in Brooklyn as well as on in more rural spaces (California) that center regenerative farming practices and Indigenous ethics. As for personal interests, I am drawn toward Indigenous medicine / spiritual practices, earth / eco building, yoga (hathe, tantra, ayurveda, and meditation. I'm interested in expanding my Spanish, spiritual practices, earth building, and organic farming practices in different regions, as well as meet new people! Excited for what aligns.
