I'm a Food Systems PhD student & graduate fellow at the Gund Institute for Environment at the University of Vermont. My research focuses on agroecology, landscape planning, and pollinator conservation. (https://www.uvm.edu/gund/profiles/leslie-spencer)

I'm a former member of the Tufts Pollinator Initiative (https://sites.tufts.edu/pollinators/) and I now work with Grow Wild VT (https://burlingtonwildways.org/grow-wild/welcome). I love talking to people about native plants and their insect visitors!
