Augustine Kind
he/they
B.A. & M.S.
I was born and raised in Conroe and Houston, Texas and I am an educator, farmer, beekeeper and Agroecologist.
I have a Bachelor's of Arts in Sustainable Community Development and a Master's of Science in Sustainable Food Systems from Prescott College.
In May 2025, I completed my permaculture certification here in Houston.
Through my work, I aim to connect people with their sense of place and provide education for sustainable land management, specifically in agriculture.
I find the land and all her inhabitants infinitely incredible and fascinating.
My passion for my work in food systems education is driven by a love for the land that created us all.
I believe we have the tools within ourselves and our communities to heal our collective relationship with the world, in the efforts to better us all.
My work is grounded in a deep seated commitment to decolonization and returning land to Indigenous communities. Communities native to the Gulf Coast region include the Akokisa, Karankawa, Atakapa, and many more.
I believe that reimagining agriculture can help us remember and repair relationships to the land damaged through settler-colonialism.
As such, I am an abolitionist committed to envisioning futures outside of capitalism.
In my spare time, I love to read, sketch, tattoo, hike/camp, collage, garden, and bake.
I have two cats named Moonshine and Theodora.
I love bees, bats, armadillos, opossums, and stingrays.
I am a Sagittarius and my favorite authors are Robin Wall Kimmerer and Kurt Vonnegut.
