Chris Keeve, Floridian and aspiring cryptid, does a lot of things with seeds and with the people who care about them. They completed their BA in Environmental Sciences & African-American Studies at Northwestern and their MS in Geography at the University of Wisconsin. Their research has recently focused on in situ agrobiodiversity conservation through seedkeeping and historic plant collections, and has turned towards living and lively archives as well as the local and regional landscape dynamics of participatory plant breeding and seed grower networks. Further interests ooze into Black Geographies, Queer Geographies, Political Ecology, Vegetal Geographies, Historical Ecology, other things probably, but really they just like reading comics, tending to plants, and growing food.
