James Cieszynski

Urban Farm Coordinator

James was excited when he first heard about Kinship because he was looking for ways to grow more personally and spiritually. He spent the summer working at our Urban Farm and decided to stay a full year to see how else he could grow alongside others. When he is not at work he enjoys woodworking, reading, gardening, and planning D& D campaigns.

“Both of my grandmothers were excellent cooks; and almost all my earliest memories of our visits involve the meals they would prepare.  Even back then, I feel that I recognized their work as a labor of love.”
