Abra Lee’s “Conquer the Soil” on Salvation South

My story about horticulturist and historian Abra Lee and her upcoming book, “Conquer the Soil: Black America and the Untold Stories of Our Country’s Gardeners, Farmers and Growers” is now on Salvation South.

Salvation South is a new online publication committed to telling good stories about the South, like Abra’s work telling the forgotten history of Black horticulturists.
