Aurora, TX – Deborah “Deb” Terrell is an agriculturalist, and founder and principal of Nature's Circle, a renowned farm that develops innovative agricultural products and unique farm goods.

“Currently, I consider myself an entrepreneur because through Nature’s Circle, I develop new farm products,” explains Deb. “The plants that I primarily focus on are Luffa, Moringa, and Butterfly Pea.”  Having grown luffa for over twenty years. Deb offers many luffa products including cat toys, luffa diffusers, luffa farm art such as luffa longhorns and luffa pumpkins, and ChiDamaLuffa, a horticultural practice where plants are wrapped in Luffa and string.

“Luffa is an international crop, grows well in hot climates,” notes Deb. “I grow Luffa for the bees – both honey and native bees. Deb is in the process of writing two books – The Power of Luffa and The Art of ChiDamaLuffa.

Another plant that Deb cultivates is moringa, known as “the tree of life”. Moringa is a Southern Hemisphere crop that is a superfood.

The butterfly pea is the most recent entry in Deb’s farm.

Deb maintains an apiary and is a Certified Bee Friendly Farm. Nature’s Circle is also a Monarch Butterfly Waystation.

“I am also on my city council in Aurora, Texas,” notes Deb.

“The reason that I have stayed in agriculture is because I would always have a job related to food” explains Deb. “I would be an essential worker.”
