Hoquiam Family Farm

For this family farm the clients wanted a a full scale redesign of the property to include water systems, animal paddocks, and short term camping options. The plan was to develop it into a destination campsite retreat with a full scale working farm providing many of the products used and enjoyed by guests of the retreat. There were plans for earthworks to create ponds and regrade the landscape, as well as many intricate plant guilds designed to work on the specific property. These guilds, plants grouped together based on affinity, can provide useful yields year round.
