“Whoever creates a garden, creates happiness, ” has defined my life, beginning when I discovered my love and talent for gardening as a child to my trailblazing efforts in introducing eco-friendly, research-based edible gardens and landscapes to public schools, hospitality companies including resorts, restaurants, galleries and spas as well as private residences in the greater Los Angeles area, Malibu and the South Bay for over fifteen years. As the founder of The Cook’s Garden, my focus includes teaching, consulting, designing and overseeing the execution of edible landscaping and food production gardens for my clients and community. Working to strengthen communities, much of my work over the years has been pro bono to educators and non-profits focusing on children.
At The Cook’s Garden, I concentrate on educating the community, not only in the art of growing food, but also in organic, sustainable and regenerative methods that protects and nourishes the whole biosphere. Through this education I hope to create a community of “good stewards” of the earth who will share their new skill with others eventually having a positive effect on our world.
