Healthy Ranchlands, Fish and Wildlife Habitats in Sustainable Watersheds!
Services
Permaculture Design
Permaculture design embraces a holistic approach to land and water resource management with a vision toward natural resilience, efficiency, and long-term sustainability. By blending principles of earth science, ecology, agriculture, and landscape design we develop cost-effective strategies making the most of available resources while meeting landowner needs. Whether for a small mountain-town backyard, ranchland, or entire watershed, we work with landowners to turn visions of sustainable living into thriving, productive spaces.
Watershed Restoration
Watershed restoration is at the heart of our mission to protect and enhance the natural hydrology of our landscapes. By taking a watershed approach to improve soil health and restore healthy vegetation, we aim to rehabilitate damaged watersheds to support clean water, thriving ecosystems, and resilient communities. Our work integrates innovative strategies and local expertise to stabilize degraded streambanks, reestablish healthy riparian zones, and ensure the long-term sustainability of these vital natural systems. With a commitment to ecological balance, we help watersheds recover their capacity to support life—from wildlife habitats to grazing lands and human needs.
Landscape and Water Resource Surveys
Serous landscape-scale work begins with defensible baseline serveys to guide planning and cost-effective action. Blending old-fashioned, boots on the ground field work with GPS precision, drone imagery, and cloud-based resource, our Landscape and Water Resource Surveys provide a comprehensive understanding of natural systems including topography, geology/soils, vegetation, and hydrology. Typical projects include technical support for water rights compliance and maping of waterways, wetlands, and burned lands. With a conservation perspective, we help ensure that landscapes and water resources are managed responsibly for the benefit of ecosystems and communities alike.
