Let nature do the work.
About Professor Brown
I’m Professor Brown, a gardening and sustainability educator based in Southern California. I teach regenerative gardening and sustainability at Mt. San Antonio College in Walnut, California, working with students of all ages and experience levels.
I created Growing With Professor Brown to make practical, science-based gardening and sustainability education accessible beyond the classroom - for students, home gardeners, and anyone interested in growing food and caring for the land.
Background & Education
My academic background includes a B.S. in Environmental Biology and a Master’s degree in Regenerative Studies, with a focus on soil health, ecological restoration, and regenerative education.
My work bridges academic research and real-world gardening, emphasizing approaches that are effective, sustainable, and accessible to everyday gardeners.
You can read my Master’s thesis on environmental education in K-3 classrooms here.
