from the ground up.
There are an infinite number of ways that we can begin to approach the ecological changes and dangers that are becoming increasingly present in our lives — the problems that seem too big to tackle, such as climate change, loss of biodiversity, and soil degradation. What makes things more complicated is how these ecological problems overlap with the interpersonal challenges we face as societies and communities.
Our mission at Radicle is to support the bottom-up approach, helping individuals and community groups create beautiful ecological havens and engaged natural worlds in their backyards, shared spaces, and public spheres. We offer design/ build services and ecological master planning of landscapes to achieve these goals.
Together, one by one, we can steward a growing network of gardens and naturalized spaces that begin to tackle stormwater, runoff, pollinator resources, food insecurity, and ecological climate migration all while creating beautiful, dynamic spaces for humans and non-humans to live and thrive.
