Biography

As a 24 year veteran teacher, I want to reconnect young people to gardening.  There is so much that they can learn from growing vegetables and fruits that they can prepare and eat.  I want them to have that opportunity.

My school used to have a learning garden.  However, it has recently been remodeled and xeriscaped and we have lost all of our planting boxes as a result.  I would like to bring in a community garden to feed healthy foods to my school’s low income community.
