Giles is Wasatch Community Gardens' Education Program Director. Giles was originally hired by WCG in 2011 to establish the Parks for Produce Program, our community garden partnership with Salt Lake County. Giles first got acquainted with the inequities of the modern food system while rescuing produce that would otherwise have been thrown away, and redistributing it to the low-income and homeless of Salt Lake City. Later, Giles helped develop more ecological and affordable alternatives as a small-scale market gardener, and as a founding staff member of the Community Food Co-op of Utah and the New Roots refugee gardening program.
