We designed and installed an urban 100% native landscape at a main downtown intersection in the Upstate NY town of Saratoga Springs with the amazing and talented community group SoBro Conservancy of Saratoga.

On this affordable housing rooftop building at 540 West 53rd Street, there is a feature usually associated with lux high-rises: an expansive terrace with sweeping views, intimate gathering areas, and lush, abundant greenery.

If you are ever stressed, feeling anxious, sad about the world, climate, future… head into the woods for a MOSS NAP.

We’ll be talking lots about garden care, climate change, native plants and joy in both classes in the city and country this fall.

After a decade of creating gardens for affordable housing in NYC we share what we’ve learned, the important role landscapes play in people’s health, how privilege affects our access to greenspace and how the whole thing got super elevated due to Covid.

Design Wild creates an ecological, pollinator, native wonderland in the beautiful gallery space at Stone Barns Center for Food and Agriculture.
