Meet Ash – our new educator for Farm Discovery programming!

Ash is a recent graduate of Environmental Studies at UCSC. Her passion for agriculture and soil health began in her hometown of San Juan Capistrano, where she volunteered at the Ecology Center. She later interned and worked as an organic farmer at the Center for Agroecology, where she aided in sustaining the Basic Needs Program at UCSC. She thrives surrounded by soil and the power it holds. Ash is excited to work as an educator at Farm Discovery and share her passion for sustainability and soil science with her community. When not in the soil, you will most likely find her in the forest looking for Amanitas or reading a book beside her pet cat, Juno!
