Mark Fujiwara

Mark grew up gardening in the Inland East Bay Area and wandering the Open Space around Tuyshtak / Mt. Diablo. After returning to the Bay Area from time living in China, Japan, and San Quentin, Mark became more deeply engaged in social justice sustainable and regenerative agriculture, and building healthy communities and eco-villages.

Mark has a Masters in Poetics from New College of California, earned his Permaculture Design Course certificate in 2019, and UC Naturalist Certificate in 2021. Before joining PJ, Mark was the Communications Coordinator for Legal Services for Prisoners with Children (LSPC) and their grassroots organizing project, All of Us or None–both led and staffed by formerly incarcerated and system-impacted advocates.
