Landscaping is one of the few art forms that gets more interesting, more colorful, more complex and diverse as time goes on. We set our earth canvas in motion with our paints of plants and nothing gives me such great joy as visiting projects, installed by my friends and I, years down the road as they’ve evolved and expressed multiple cycles of beauty.

2024 marks 10 years of designing and installing permaculture inspired landscapes in Northern Colorado. Little by little, small pockets of ecological biodiversity, local food and medicine, and habitat are growing, evolving, and even becoming interconnected by the birds and bees that find refuge in these landscapes. When you landscape your yard in this way, you participate in the restoration and resilience of our local community at a pattern level.
