Stronger together in the fight against climate change.

Patchwork Ecosystem helps to foster strong communities, progressive businesses & thriving ecosystems.

We believe that addressing climate change requires a holistic approach that combines systems thinking, cross-sector collaboration, nature-based services, and innovative design.

By working with small businesses, private landscapes, and park spaces through an integrated lens, we help to uncover opportunities that boost ecological resilience, optimize our relationships with natural resources, and support sustainable growth at the watershed level. Our mission is to foster thriving, interconnected systems where businesses, homes, and natural spaces work in harmony.

Working together, we can cultivate stronger, more adaptive communities and landscapes that thrive in the face of climate change. If holistic design and collective action for a sustainable future resonate with you, we’d love to connect.
