Resilient Roots is a nonprofit whose mission is to inspire and enable people to be good stewards of the earth. Using natural ecosystems as our model, we teach people about growing food organically, creating landscapes that include native plants, and regenerating the ecosystem's health. We envision a region of interconnected backyards that are abundant with food and support the native insects and wildlife that are the foundation of the food web.

"Resilient Roots jump-started our journey toward reducing our lawn, producing some of our own food, while promoting pollinator and wildlife habitat in our little corner of the world. We had been researching permaculture methods and soil restoration, but were at a loss for where to begin. Kristie's site visit and subsequent design helped us envision what we could do over a few years. And hosting a permablitz gave us great hands-on education while also implementing a good chunk of the design. Plus, we met some great like-minded people!"
