Just outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania a team of plant folks known as Refugia is growing connection among places and people from their beautifully designed native plant gardens and radiating out from those.

This week Cultivating Place is joined by Refugia founder Jeff Lorenz, by stewardship manager Esther Scanlon, by Lead Project Manager Ronnie Ludwig, and by Melissa Nase Refugia’s lead Landscape Designer and Greenhouse Manager. The team shares the process and ethos of Refugia as they design, create and help to steward functional landscapes that are ecologically beneficial, beautiful, and resilient - and perhaps most importantly, connective.
