Work With Us

Biodiverse food gardens that grow with you.

We design and care for biodiverse food gardens that deepen with time.

Our work supports people who want more than a finished project.
They want a landscape that grows with their lives, their rhythms, and their capacity.

Whether you’re looking for hands-on support or a clear plan you can grow into, we help you find a path that feels steady, realistic, and alive.

Finding the Right Pathway Forward

Many people reach out feeling unsure where to begin, or worried about making costly mistakes. That uncertainty is normal—especially when advice is abundant but context is missing.

Our work begins by helping people orient themselves clearly before moving forward.

“We had no idea where to begin, and taking it on ourselves felt daunting. Josh and his team were a welcome presence and made the whole process feel far less overwhelming.”
– Sheena Tiicham Muir, Homeowner & Herbalist

When the right questions are asked early, decisions feel less rushed and more intentional.

From that place, we explore what kind of support makes sense for you and your landscape, allowing the project to unfold in a way that feels grounded rather than overwhelming.

“Thank you for being our sage guide as we navigate this special moment in our lives.

Your understanding of the power of a good question to generate dialogue, crystallize an idea, identify values and barriers, and co-create the vision is exceptional.”

– Dr. E.G., Ecological Restoration Specialist

How We Can Support You

We offer flexible support that meets you where you are and adapts as your garden evolves.

You might be looking for:

  • A clear plan before investing time or money

  • Design guidance that works with your site and lifestyle

  • Hands-on support during installation

  • Ongoing care or seasonal maintenance

  • Help making sense of conflicting advice

Whatever your starting point, we focus on clarity first.

Ways of Working Together

  • Thoughtful planning is often the most valuable place to begin.

    Design and planning support may include site-specific layouts, plant selection, phasing guidance, and clear next steps tailored to your goals.

  • For those who want hands-on help, we offer full-service installation and on-site support grounded in practical experience—building systems that settle in well and grow stronger with time.

  • Some people enjoy doing the work themselves with the right structure and guidance.

    Our DIY options provide design direction, seasonal care guidance, and confidence to move forward at your own pace.

How We Approach the Work

We work with living systems, including soil, plants, climate, and people.

That means:

  • We prioritize long-term health over quick fixes

  • We design for realistic maintenance

  • We adapt recommendations to your actual site and capacity

  • We support gardens that improve with time rather than decline

This work is meant to feel grounded, not rushed. Supportive, not overwhelming.

“The work never felt rushed or overwhelming, and the garden feels like it truly belongs here.”

— Dr. Michelle Lareau, Veterinarian

Where We Work

We’re based in Greater Victoria, BC, and primarily work on-site across Vancouver Island, including the Gulf Islands.

We also support clients beyond our region through remote design, planning, and ongoing guidance.

Some projects involve close, in-person collaboration.

Others unfold through thoughtful planning and steady support at a distance.

For the right projects, we’re open to traveling and working more closely over time.

An Invitation

If you’re unsure which path makes the most sense for you, that’s completely normal.

You don’t need a plan.

A conversation is often the simplest place to begin.
