ENJOY & CARE FOR YOUR LAND
- What do you need or want from the land? What does the land need from you?
- What can be learned from evidence of land use and natural patterns from the past?
- How can you best work with the land to realize your connections?
I WILL WORK WITH YOU
Together we will gather information to develop a story about your home place to use as a basis for development of plans for living and working on and with your land sustainably.
DEVELOPING YOUR LANDSTORY
OVERVIEW CONSULT
Overstory
We’ll spend 2 hours exploring your land gathering information and exchanging ideas. As follow up, you will receive a printed, detailed overview of your landscape that includes location maps and a compilation of general information and possibilities for further Landstory development.
SITE ANALYSIS & MAPPING
Landscape Reading
A site analysis is based on physical, ecological, and environmental conditions, and aesthetic features of the landscape and is used to generate a complete report with diagrams and a base map summarizing your land’s attributes. The landscape reading summary is a solid information base for planning for the future.
AN ECOLOGICALLY-CONNECTED MASTER PLAN
Landstory Plan Book
A detailed plan for dynamic, sustainable land management and land stewardship. It begins with an Overstory Consult, flows into a dynamic Landscape Reading, and is completed with design precedents, a hand-rendered conceptual plan with detail diagrams and easy to follow guidelines for sustainable stewardship.
CO-CREATING YOUR UNIQUE STORYLINE
Create Your Storyline
Together we’ll plan your Landstory project. Whether locating growing space or outdoor living and recreation areas, establishing wildflower meadows or wildlife habitat areas, planting a memorial garden, or researching land use and ownership history. Let’s Dream!
"...the care of the earth is our most ancient and most worthy and, after all, our most pleasing responsibility."
