I'm an environmental anthropologist and archaeologist, working as an Assistant Professor in the Environmental Studies Program at Washington and Lee University. Through my archaeological excavations and work with farmers, my research adds critical historical depth to modern food sovereignty and environmental justice issues. 

My current research traces the history and sustainability of rural Maya farming communities in Yucatán, Mexico. I'm looking forward to developing comparative investigations of agricultural history in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley in the near future.

This website brings together writings and images from my work. For questions or more information, contact me at cfisher@wlu.edu.
