This is a project to develop a plan for transforming the typical american suburban landscape. It involves converting a portion of the land that is now covered in grass into aesthetic, healthy landscapes of botanical and agricultural gardens, designed, maintained, and harvested by community-scaled organizations for the benefit of the homeowners and an ecological future. The Rescape plan has the potential for several important contributions to contemporary society. Beyond the advantages of creating a more stimulating local environment, this project proposes an open-source blueprint to transform the land required to grow crops necessary to bolster farming against foreseeable food shortages. There are also intrinsic economically viable business and software development opportunities that could be explored.
Covid-19 and social distancing practices have limited our potential for outreach. We continue to look forward by focusing our time and attention on improving the fourth corner experience.
