Building a Resilient Future Together

We facilitate the process of listening, understanding, trusting each other, AND working together. This means using the most impactful strategies for investing in our natural and working lands while creating built environments connected to long-term stewardship approaches and climate solutions. We can’t do everything at once, but we can do something right now.

We offer a fully-integrated policy, design and planning process, from project visioning, strategic planning and community and urban design. We encourage our clients to think long-term, to consider the legacy they are creating and to understand how today's decisions affect future generations.

Our Philosophy & our Collective Challenge

The enormity of climate issues and biodiversity loss can leave us all feeling overwhelmed. How can we ever make a difference? Where do we even start? Failure to adapt to, or address climate risks has serious repercussions for our health, our communities and our natural lands.

At Cultivate, we envision collaborative efforts that explore innovative solutions for investing in our natural and working lands. By fostering connectivity between built environments and climate solutions, we are working towards a sustainable and harmonious future.

Declining water sources, which affects the foods we grow, increases conflicts over the shared resource, and impacts water dependent economies.

Increased wildfires, which pose serious human health risks, impacts water quality and contributes to increased environmental degradation.

Rising heat contributes to exacerbate our already scarce water supplies, disrupts ecosystems, negatively impacts crop yields and reduces agricultural productivity.
