Abigail Han

Abbi first came to The Land Institute as an intern in 2018. A semester before completing her degree in Crop & Soil Science at Virginia Tech, she joined the Research Resident program in 2019 and finished her degree remotely to begin her work in the Perennial Legume program. As a resident, her work has focused on studying kura clover for use in a perennial groundcover system while assisting with other projects in the lab. Abbi also began a collaboration with Sacred Seed, an indigenous seed-keeping organization, and planted a plot of the “Four Sisters” in an exploration of intercropping and ancient agricultural methods.
