Greetings! I’m interested in ecological restoration work as a way to mutually nourish ourselves and our homes. I can offer restoration work in the form of developing and implementing plans, as well as dreaming up and enacting creative and social engagement for places, such as maple sugar harvesting, edible plant processing, craft-making, gathering people, creating interactive land sculptures. Let’s enliven beautiful places together.

I offer ecological restoration and land stewardship for private landowners in Northeast Wisconsin. In addition to this, I help homeowners move from horticultural plants and turf grass to more sustainable native plantings. My goal is to bring people back to nature.

Hi, My name is Ben and I love exploring and working in the outdoors, especially Door County, my home. I have had the opportunity to gain experience in ecological restoration through summer 2022's Land Restoration School and field work at Crossroads at Big Creek. I am available and interested in invasive removal and land restoration plans for desired areas of land but also open to any other ideas/dreams clients may have. Let's work together to continue keeping our world beautiful and natural.

Cream City Conservation Corps program trains and employs young adults 15-25 whose social identities are traditionally underrepresented in the environmental industry. The model is a closed loop system between our Consulting firm and our Corps program.  Together, we cultivate the next generation of environmental change agents while strengthening environmental and community-based organizations to attract, develop and retain diverse pools of talent.  The Corps program is supported by community partnerships and profits from the Consulting firm.

The Corps works only on public lands and books out 5-9 months in advance. See the Fee-for-Service Crew Request.
