In GBA 23 we get better acquainted with Jessica. Most of the conversation takes place on a fruit and veg stall. She talks about how an allotment changed her life and the exciting project that is The People's Supermarket the work she is doing on their Hackney Consultation. We also talk about community, localism, gardening, London history, finding a job that fits who you are, art, environmental activism and yoga!
