Who We Are + What We Do
We are an information source for high desert region landscapes.

Our intent is simple:
1. Present accurate, appropriate information to make better landscape decisions
2. Dispell years of misconceptions and prejudices with facts
3. Inspire the user to have great outdoor spaces that celebrate our region

Our Land + Natural Setting
The region we focus on contains a rich blend of natural features that inspire incredible outdoor living environments. Natural places are patterns of plant life, soils and landforms, and they are largely based on the patterns of climate. Each unique natural place forms a framework for interesting, mostly unexplored possibilities in our landscapes.
