HOW WE HELP People and Planet
We collaborate with various stakeholders on projects that have positive ecological impact, build community, and work toward a better future for people and planet. We are fully committed to principles and practices that encourage and support good environmental stewardship, and help cultivate resilient communities. We have worked with schools, businesses, community organizations, land holders, and others on orchards, gardens, small-scale farms, ecological landscapes, greenhouses, composting systems, green spaces, outdoor classrooms, green building projects, and beyond. We can also help build operational fluency and organizational capacity for our partners to help ensure that their projects are a long-term success.
Our Approach
The process always starts with a discussion to learn about your needs, and for you to learn about our approach and how we can help. After that, we schedule an on-site or remote consultation depending on the type of project and your preferences. After this, we can work together to develop a plan on moving the project forward.















OUR WORK IS ROOTED IN
Ecological Design
Ecological Design is the intentional creation of systems, spaces, and practices that work in harmony with the natural world. Rather than imposing human preferences without regard for the ecosystems around us, ecological design seeks to integrate human needs in a way that honors the surrounding ecology.
In practical terms, this means using sustainable materials, minimizing waste, conserving water, avoiding poisons and pollution, and supporting biodiversity.
Our work is guided by a deep commitment to environmental ethics, which emphasize respect for the Earth, responsibility to present and future generations, and the fair and sustainable use of resources. This ethical framework prioritizes ecological health, social well-being, and a just relationship between human communities and the natural world.
For example, designing a garden is not just about food production—it’s about cultivating habitat for wildlife, creating beauty, and nurturing a meaningful connection with Nature.
