Andraleia Villand

Andraleia is a graduate of UC Berkeley. She integrates decades-long experience in construction and project management with an extensive portfolio in residential products marketing, staging and product placement for home brands. As a volunteer, then site manager for the original SEED project, she blended a family history of farming — her parents moved to California from farms in Georgia — with a desire to increase food security in South Los Angeles. She was raised, and now lives, at the site of the original SEED project. As such she grasps the importance of food security and community through a stakeholder’s lens. She is a certified Permaculture Specialist.
