Landscape designer Brandy Hall is an advocate of permaculture, a science that integrates human activities into natural surroundings to establish ecosystems that are self-sustaining. In other words, she believes your yard should take care of itself.
Her firm, Shades of Green, creates environmentally friendly residential and commercial landscapes that require less irrigation, fewer chemicals, and limited maintenance. Her projects have ranged from an organic fruit orchard that produces beer yeasts for Monday Night Brewing to the site design for Cottages on Vaughan, a tiny home enclave in Clarkston.
