About Us
The NaturaGrow® Garden Club was started in December 2014 by five members of SHUMEI AMERICA. After watching Shumei introduce the Natural Agriculture gardening to over 2,000 women farmers in Zambia, we thought that it would be useful to also introduce Natural Agriculture to people who want to grow healthy vegetables and fruit in their own back yards!
​
With the relocation of two key Founders to Oregon State, the Founders decided to move the club under the umbrella of YOUTH PUBLICATIONS, INC., a charitable non-profit organization headed by Annie Pierce, one of NaturaGrow's Founders. This decision made it possible to keep the Club close to many of the current members, as well as Shumei America, and the Hollywood Center.

We provide our Members with detailed Step-by-step "How To- Videos" for starting, planting, maintaining, and harvesting a delicious Natural Agriculture Garden or Farm!
We also provide on-site Edible Garden landscaping services, for an additional fee.

NaturaGrow Volunteers Adopt the Augustus Hawkins Nature Park Citrus Tree Garden
NaturaGrow® Members, Annie Pierce and Marina Montgomery volunteered in November 2022 to help restore the Augustus Hawkins Nature Park’s Citrus Orchard and Garden Area, which had been abandoned for years after the Staff Caretaker of the Garden retired. The trees were dying, and the raised beds were all full of weeds. Now, with the love and care of NaturaGrow®, all of the 30+ Citrus Trees have beautiful leaves and many are growing small baby fruits! Also, several of the raised beds are growing Romaine Lettuce, Arugula, and Red Swiss Chard that garden visitors are enjoying!
NaturaGrow® plans for the Augustus Hawkins Nature Park to be first of a series of Edible Gardens and free Gardening Workshops throughout the networks of Los Angeles City and County Parks, teaching children, youth, and adults about the health and wealth benefits of growing their own veggies, fruits, herbs, and edible flowers, using simple Natural Agriculture methods. However, NaturaGrow® needs the community support to be able to carry out this expansive vision! Please donate to NaturaGrow's parent non-profit Organization, Youth Publications, Inc. to make this dream become a reality! Secure Donations can be made with PAYPAL at the following link:
