We approach every project as an opportunity to expand our collective potential. We want to listen, learn and grow just as much as we want to design, create and shape.
Our working relationship with land and plants guides everything we do.
-
Remote or in-person site and project review to help guide site planning and landscape design. We spend as little as an hour or up to a full day learning about the project and helping to guide it’s development.
-
We research and identify the unique qualities, characteristics and vitality of a place or project. We are researchers and students, moving through the thoughtful and engaging exploration of place, processes and project resources to uncover the true potential.
-
We design, plan, shape and plant resilient landscapes with enduring value. We work at all scales - from small homes and gardens to community plans and public spaces - across rural and urban contexts and with teams large and small.
-
We have over fifteen years of experience in helping small farms and homesteads with site planning, systems layout, agroforestry species selection and integrated management strategies. We help design ponds, earthworks, fencing, hedgerows, and market gardens, bringing a unique perspective to the design of working landscapes.
-
In addition to being a Technical Assistance Provider to small farms, we research and develop our design principles in the field with our small homestead and nursery. Our plant stock focuses on locally harvested seed, novel agroforestry crops and unique varieties of each. Plants are available for sale and, if its a good fit, we offer plant installation and maintenance through establishment.
-
Grafting and propagation workshops, planting demonstrations and other hands-on experiences are custom tailored to the needs of a group. We have given presentations and lectures for college seminars and courses, small businesses and conferences on topics such as agroforestry, ecological design, permaculture and the design process.
