About ENRICH LA

ENRICH LA is a Los Angeles–based 501(c)(3) nonprofit that designs, builds, maintains, and programs edible school gardens across Los Angeles County. The organization operates an ongoing Garden Build program to create affordable, low-maintenance outdoor classrooms and a Garden Ranger program that places trained garden educators on-site to teach standards-aligned, garden-based lessons. ENRICH LA emphasizes organic, regenerative practices (no pesticides, herbicides, or fungicides) and partners with schools, parent groups, and community volunteers to sustain gardens over time. The organization maintains public financial transparency (Form 990s posted on its website) and continues active program work and hiring for school-year Garden Ranger positions in recent years. In the most recent program years the charity has focused on scaling maintenance and education through its Garden Ranger placements and sustaining an expanding network of school gardens that primarily serve socioeconomically disadvantaged student populations.
