Apparently I spoke to her about becoming certified as an LA County Master Gardener....She signed up, went through the training and is now quite the master of masters. She’s available to teach or consult—and she specializes in native plants for food and medicine, among other spheres of essential knowledge. She received her public health degree, and she really knows her stuff.”
