Tejas Srikanth was raised in Marion, Indiana, USA. He moved to Colorado in 2015 to pursue an education in Environmental Studies, eventually earning a Master’s Degree in Sustainable Food Systems from the University of Colorado. Combined with his lived experience growing up in the rural Midwest, Tejas’s community engagement work with urban and regenerative agriculture organizations inspired him to work with The Land Institute on perennial agriculture solutions. At The Land Institute, Tejas helps connect diverse groups of people to the science and mission of the organization in accessible ways that inspire action and engagement.
My most perennial trait: Adaptation—like many things on this planet, you can drop me into different places and I’ll find my way over time.
