What we do

Our work is rooted in the understanding that the best way we can mitigate climate change and create healthy communities is through investing (research, time, money) into our working landscapes. We support, collaborate, and work with stakeholders who share, and sometimes challenge, these values. We partner with landowners, investors, farmers, conservationists, food professionals and municipalities to develop creative business solutions to complex problems. We work across many industries and landscapes, from city planters to small farms to conserved areas that span thousands of acres.

Who we are

We come from different areas of working in food supply chains, ecology, business, conservation, agriculture, landscape design, and community development. We believe that restoring human to land connection is integral to creating a healthy, equitable human society. We value curiosity, empathy, honesty, and humility. We are good at difficult conversations, and we frequently debate the tension and balance between profit and impact in our work. We turn down work that we do not believe in.

How we work

Whether we are working with a city planner arranging low water native planters in a public park or at a field project site getting our hands dirty obtaining soil samples— we are often at our best are when we are outside. We come from different areas of work within food supply chains, ecology, business, conservation, agriculture, landscape design, and community development. We are fiercely committed to working within our sphere of influence to create an inclusive workplace that welcome is welcome to both visible and non-visible minority colleagues and external stakeholders.

How we grow

We make mistakes and we believe that these experiences are an essential part of our process, our learning, and our successes. As we grow and evolve, we continue to invest in creating an inclusive and anti-racist workspace for ourselves, our colleagues, and our partners. We love the natural world, as it connects us to the work that we do. Whether we are sitting in a park or working at one of our field projects (helping with weeding, taking soil samples, or participating in animal chores), we are often our best selves when we are outside.
