Tres Crow is a writer, artist, and designer. He's the president of Roots Down, an environmental education firm dedicated to helping governments, non-profits, and communities transform their expensive, labor-intensive green areas into productive urban landscapes. Tres and his colleagues at Roots Down argue that, with the right education, landscapers can change their practices, save money and make landscapes more sustainable.
Show host Neal and Tres discuss how the landscaping industry has largely been left out of larger conversations about sustainability and regeneration. Tres dispels the misconception that ecological landscaping costs more than traditional landscaping, and he describes how productive urban landscapes, when maintained properly, can flourish for decades. Plus, Tres explains solutions that would decrease landscaping’s negative environmental impacts, cut costs, and create beautiful, long-lasting landscapes for communities to enjoy.
