About this listen
Four years ago, we sat down with Kahehtoktha Janice Brant one of the first Aunties we ever interviewed for this podcast.
She’s a Kanyen'kehà;ka Mohawk Seed Keeper, farmer, and co-founder of the Kenté:ke Seed Sanctuary. And honestly, that episode still stands out because of who she is - so we are very happy to include her in the first of our Aunties Revisited series.
Her name, Kahehtoktha, means “She goes the length of the garden,”. Janice has been doing this work for a long time - planting, protecting, organizing, teaching. And since that first interview, she’s only expanded what she’s doing.
We caught up with her again recently, in pajamas, with coffee. We also talk about her niece who’s starting to take on the seed work. Janice is still in it - and she is raising up the next generation of leaders.
