Land Walk Consultation
The first step on your EarthCare Journey with us!
During this in-person, on-site consultation you will walk Kendra around your landscape, showing your full property, pointing out special plants and areas of concern. A few things that might happen during the Land Walk are:
-
observe the sunlight, soil and moisture conditions on site
-
use tools to ID plants: native, invasive, edible and poison
-
discover resources and opportunities on site
-
assess mindful cleanup task list and needs
-
discuss ways to lower maintenance, show neighbors you care, plant natives, build habitat, support pollinators and reduce lawn, with style and ease.
Kendra is certified in Permaculture, Ecological Design, Habitat Stewardship, Nature-Based Education, Wilderness First-Aid, Somatic Movement Therapy and more. Her mission is to empower humans into stewardship and kinship with Earth.

EarthCare Strategy Session
This is a virtual opportunity for guidance from Kendra on your projects or journey.
Need help knowing how to sheet mulch on a hill, where to plant pollinators, finding the best location for raised beds, knowing what to do with a wet area, or what's most ethical and efficient in odd cases?
Kendra's Strategy Sessions are designed to help you move forward on your EarthCare journey, whether that's in planning a project, figuring out the best steps, or simply finding ways to connect better with Nature in your Place .
Because every person and every Place is so unique, these sessions help you focus on what you can do now (immediate next steps) and help you plan for later (long term goals in phases) to make a powerful impact for the planet. It may take more than one session to realize all your dreams, or you may benefit from an occasional boost along the way.
Wherever you feel challenged or in need of insight or resources, Kendra is determined to help you establish a strategy to make your EarthCare goals a reality.
Ecology-Focused
Business Support Session
Kendra helps experienced landscapers and budding new earth-workers become Independent Contractors or Small Business Owners in the fields of ecological landscaping, habitat stewardship and earth-first entrepreneurship.
After many years of messes, mistakes and wild successes, Kendra is confident she can point you in a good direction to get started, or help you through the next steps. Depending on your current skill and experience, your path will vary greatly, so this a custom chat.
