Baruch Yakov Mendelowitz, also known as BYM, is the creator of the YULA garden. Born in Czekslovakyia 2006, his parents were very hard on him. Running away to America in order to be free he found himself in the hands of the Los Angeles Jewish community. Eager to learn more about his saviors, Baruch joined a Yeshivah, or Jewish Highschool. There he found his true love, gardening. Under his leadership the YULA Mendelowitz Garden has turned from a selection of weeds to a thriving and serene environment.
