Before landing at the Wallace Center, Jane worked on ecological research and restoration projects in Iowa prairies and Florida scrub. Her interest in democratized agricultural systems comes from a love of food, an interest in agroecology, and a commitment to movements that build collective power and prioritize people and land.
