Jessica Brent is a freelance writer and adventurer. With a background in urban planning, she likes to explore the intersections of food, farming, culture and placemaking. Though her family roots are planted deep in north Kansas farmland, her own farming experience has been limited to volunteer farming in Africa, local community gardening and covering the more agriculturally ambitious for Edible Tulsa. When she's not tootling around the countryside in a 1974 Volkswagen camper she lives near downtown Tulsa in house that pleasingly resembles a barn.
