Land Stewardship and Management Strategies

Solutions are found in how we think about the problem.

Land Stewardship is a term we use to describe the care and ongoing attention given to your property. Unlike the traditional concept of maintenance—which often implies mechanical tasks performed on equipment—Land Stewardship recognizes a garden as a living ecosystem. This ecosystem is interconnected with its surrounding environment, with plants that are alive and possess unique growth rates, habits, and characteristics influenced by their surroundings.

Ecosystems naturally fluctuate and change as the seasons shift, creating dynamic conditions that require thoughtful observation and understanding. Through experience, we can anticipate how plants will respond to various management strategies. By nurturing the health of the garden’s ecosystem, we expand our awareness and move beyond simply owning property; we embrace the role of responsible stewards of the land, fostering beauty, biodiversity, and ecological balance.

Land Stewardship fee is hourly starting at $60.
