Levi Geyer

Levi Geyer lives and works west of Iowa City, Iowa, not far from the farm where he grew up. While seeking internships in sustainable agriculture, he found The Land Institute. As a general research assistant in 2022, Levi was famed for his hole-digging speed. Today, he continues to promote perennial polycultures through his independent research and development of hickory nut oil.

My most perennial trait is Audacity – I’m like a tiny redwing blackbird mobbing a much larger hawk.
