“Thinking ecologically about design is a way of strengthening the weave that links nature and culture.” Sim Van Der Ryn and Stuart Cowan Tupelo Gardenworks is committed to creating landscapes that encourage people, plants and animals to flourish communally. Our intent is to work closely with patrons to provide ecologically based solutions for their land. This may be as simple as establishing a butterfly garden or as complex as an artificial wetlands system to purify wastewater. Our firm works in partnership with a range of consultants – wildlife biologists, nurserymen, engineers, restoration ecologists and others. With their help, we strive to make responsible and appropriate choices.
