WORK HISTORY
CEO and Garden Educator @Rutabaga Education
San Diego, CA, US
Rutabaga Education is a one-of-a-kind, easy-to-teach curriculum that incorporates garden-based science, nutrition, and nature, designed for preschool and elementary-aged children. It’s an accessible program used by teachers, classroom volunteers, and homeschooling parents looking to grow the next generation of eco-conscious citizens.Curriculum content is scaffolded and includes NGSS Core Ideas and Crosscutting Concepts while weaving in STEAM, History, Nutrition, and Global Responsibility. This is on top of promoting an environment of collaboration, respect, and kindness. Rutabaga Education was written and designed by a teacher/gardener/mother to have an intuitive structure that offers 30 weeks of garden instruction throughout the school year, providing an engaging, holistic approach that touches on everything from healthy eating to composting, history to art, and conservation to mindfulness.On November 1, 2023, we also launched our first four eco-friendly, ergonomic, durable, and safe garden tools designed for green thumbs (or aspiring to be so) ages 3-100+. Our award winning tools are made with recycled plastic recoved from the ocean and shorelines by The Ocean Legacy Foundation.
