Charles is the proud recipient of the University of Arizona, College of Agriculture, Life and Environmental Sciences' Science Communicator of the Year Award.

Together We Grow Az was founded with a passion for sustainable gardening solutions. Growing up, I learned the art of gardening from my grandmother, sparking a lifelong interest in eradicating food deserts and providing fresh food to every home. Through years of experience and dedication, I have developed three innovative gardening systems: Hydroponics, Aquaponics, and Aeroponics, in addition to traditional gardening methods. Our mission is to help you grow your own fresh, healthy produce at home, no matter the size of your space. Let's grow together and create a more sustainable future for all.
