Sometimes building a legacy comes with pivots and that’s okay.

Will Allen was a corporate sales leader and pro basketball player who grew up learning how to grow his own food from his father who was a southern sharecropper. He paired his passion with a need he saw within his community and dove deep into the urban agriculture sector. He not only provided food for many who lived in areas where fresh, organic products were hard to access, but provided a space for others in this line of work to flourish as well! We salute him today and appreciate the work that he does which aligns beautifully with what our work here at PAHL sprouted from! Stay tuned for more because there’s so much more Black excellence and innovation to honor!
