Leona Davis


I moved to Tucson from the urban forests of North Carolina at age 19 and fell deeply in love with the people, plants, and land of the Sonoran Desert. Following four years of apprenticeship, I became an SPG teaching team member in 2012. My diverse professional experience includes designing and installing rainwater systems, local food system development, and environmental citizen science. I hold a BS in Natural Resources and a Masters in Environmental Learning, both from the University of Arizona. I live with my family in central Tucson at an ever-evolving permaculture site and like to spend my free time gardening, cooking, listening to music, playing outside, caring for people, caring for the earth, and returning the surplus.
