Germaine Jenkins

Charleston, South Carolina | 1919-Present

Jenkins founded Fresh Future Farm to address the health, wealth, and quality of life disparities in the Chicora/Cherokee neighborhood in North Charleston. Germaine, like many of the neighborhood's residents, struggled to access affordable, healthy food. She and all of the farm staff believe that everyone deserves to eat quality food. That why Fresh Future Farm grows healthy food to build strong communities.
