Elsa Calvillo

Elsa has been an Environmental educator in San Francisco for the past 4 years. She received her Urban Permaculture Design Certificate in 2009 and immediately put the philosophy to work, guiding her students to create two food gardens at Mission High School. She is excited to create community and teach in an “outdoor” classroom again.
