Farmer Profile: Wykeem Franklin, Program Manager
Developing a love for the outdoors at a young age while working with The New York Restoration Project to revamp his neighborhood creek, Wykeem started volunteering at Whitelock in 2015 when first moving to Reservoir Hill, Baltimore. He remained involved and furthered his role at the farm by co-leading our YouthWorks summer program in 2017 and 2018, as well as starting Saturday community fitness gatherings to advance community engagement and promote wellness in Reservoir Hill.
