Resources
I have been fortunate to
work with a great team designing and building landscapes.
Tom Tromblee of Tree-O Landscape and I have collaborated since 1988. He is a fully licensed landscape contractor, knowledgeable with rainwater catchment and storage, pavers, irrigation , drainage, grading, soil prep and all phases of landscape installation. Together with his experienced crew we make a complete design build team. For the Arbors and Chicken Coop in the Urban Homestead
Garden
John Cunniff is a master builder and licensed contractor
with a great attention to detail and love of chickens.
For the Arbors and Portico on Rider Ridge
Chuck Pyle mills his own wood and creates classic joinery
from forest to finial.
Garden
Art Peter
is a stone sculptor and mason. We have worked together on
several projects and I appreciate his thoughtful use of materials
and vision. Although he usually works in stone , he created
all the concrete elements in the Modern Garden including fountain,
fire table and dining island.
On his website we collaborated on the Albrect and Bolwell
Landscapes.
P.A.N. Pesticide Action
Network North America. This
organization was started over 25 years ago to educate the public
about the use and effects of pesticides. They are a great
educational resource.
California

the conservation, propagation, and use of the incredibly diverse
California Flora. Did you know there are more plants native to
California than all other U.S. states combined?
Xerces

a wealth of information on invertebrate conservation and insect
pollinators .
UCSC Arboretum The
UCSC Arboretum has a large collection of California flora and
Mediterranean plants that thrive in our climate. Well worth
a visit.
