Growing connections between food, land, and community.
Edible Origins helps schools, healthcare organizations, businesses, nonprofits, and neighborhoods turn ideas into places, programs, and partnerships that nourish people and care for the land.
Why Us…
Grow food where people are. Schoolyards, hospital campuses, courtyards, and common areas become productive landscapes that feed people and teach them.
Programming, not just planting. A garden without a program is landscaping. Every Edible Origins installation comes with the education, engagement, and maintenance that make it thrive.
Rooted in LA. We're based in the San Gabriel Valley and built for Southern California — native and climate-appropriate design, drought-conscious irrigation, and deep relationships with the region's schools, institutions, and communities.
Our Process
Design. Site assessment, edible and native landscape design, program planning matched to your community and goals.
Build. Installation of raised beds, in-ground gardens, irrigation, and outdoor learning infrastructure — managed end to end with our team.
Grow. Ongoing maintenance, seasonal planting, and harvest management that keep the space productive year-round.
Teach. Hands-on curriculum, workshops, garden clubs, and culinary programming that turn a garden into a classroom, a clinic, and a gathering place.
The Garden of Hope at City of Hope
At one of the nation's leading cancer centers, Edible Origins built and stewards the Garden of Hope — a therapeutic garden where fresh produce goes directly to patients through Produce for Patients, and where programs like Seed to Supper and Meals That Heal put the Food is Medicine model into daily practice.
