Fabiola Nizigiyimana is a Burundian refugee with farming in her blood. She was born into a farming family who had fled from their native Burundi to escape war in the 1970s. They sought refuge in Rwanda, but when the genocide began in 1994, they were forced to move on again. The last leg of Fabiola's journey took her to the United States, where she works on the Flat Mentors Farm, an immigrant farm collective in Massachusetts. She told her story to Outlook's Daniel Gross.
