Excerpt:

Kendall Rae has an acre in southwest Atlanta at aGROWKulture Urban Farm, where she produces everything from sweet corn, to honey, to the collard greens that sparked her love for farming. She markets her produce from her website via GrownBy, a direct-to-consumer cooperative, as well as pop-up marketplaces.

Quentin Johnson, Kendall Rae’s dad, recalled the first time his daughter planted a collard green: When she saw it grow, she took any seeds she could find and planted them in pots on their patio. “Before long, we had peppers, and tomatoes, and cucumbers just sprawling all across the patio, with no trellising, nothing,” he said.

Kendall Rae got extremely excited to share the tiniest growth of her plants with her family, and they indulged her excitement. That would prove to be key.

It may have been grandparents who sparked a love for farming in Kendall Rae and Jackson, but they wouldn’t be where they are without their parents.

Quentin and others work the farm with Kendall Rae. Her mom, Ursula Johnson, described Quentin as “hands-on, on the ground, on the farm with her.”

Ursula handles the business side. “She gets to see Mom taking interviews, making phone calls, writing down notes, and being in front of a computer and creating. She gets to see the full picture,” Ursula shared, adding that Kendall Rae can jump in whenever she wants but doesn’t have to.
