Build Resilience from the Ground Up

 

 

Do you want to build personal and food freedom right outside your door?

Sustainable design starts with a thorough assessment of your property. 

Strong Roots Resources provides you with an assessment of your property and a blueprint for food production. From simple raised garden beds to function-stacked food forests, we assess your needs, capabilities and goals to create a personalized plan. Our goal is to give you a clear direction for action while helping you avoid costly and frustrating mistakes. Our goal is to help you understand your land and create useful, closed loop systems. 

Packages available: 

Basic Assessment:

$400 

Schedule an in-person visit and basic assessment. This includes a leisurely tour of your property while noting your goals, experience and questions. You’ll be provided a basic assessment detailing the potential of the property along with some general planting and livestock suggestions. We generate a Google Docs document that can be amended and updated throughout the process. 

Four Month Package:

$800 In person visit and full assessment. This document is intended to provide you with the potential uses for every section of your property as well as a blueprint of the land as envisioned. Think of the blueprint as similar to one for designing a house but for the outdoor areas instead. This includes the assessment document described above. We include as much detail as possible. We endeavor to help you identify useful trees and plants already on the property, identify and use microclimates, amend and regenerate soil, sow cover crops, rotate small livestock and create animal fodder systems. Included is four months of follow up consultation via email, text or phone. 

Full Year Package:

$1,500 All of the services listed above along with a full year of consultation. Arrangements can be made for follow up visits depending upon travel time.

For areas greater than 5 acres, it’s $75 more per acre if that’s an area that you want included in the assessment and design.

For areas more than 75 miles from Knoxville, we add a .50 per mile (one way) travel fee.

My name is Kerry Brown and over a 13 year period I turned a small urban lot into a productive space that included edible, medicinal and pollinator gardens, small livestock and wildlife habitat with ponds, various composting systems and rainwater catchment. Over time, all of these elements were integrated into a closed loop system. In October 2020, we moved to a larger space and are expanding our production plans on several acres of property. We are taking the lessons learned from urban homesteading and scaling it up for larger regenerative practices to include tractoring systems for livestock, animal fodder systems and a quail aviary all while applying soil regenerative processes.  All of my knowledge has been earned from personal experience and practice, along with serving on farm workshare programs and with volunteer organizations. While I do not have a permaculture design certificate, I do implement sustainable practices and follow the general guidelines of that method, including soil conservation and regeneration, companion planting, guild formation and appropriate water management.

What do you want to accomplish? 

Whether you want to grow annual gardens or establish a perennial food plot, make your property more attractive to wildlife and pollinators or manage overgrowth and replace it with native species, the assessment and blueprint documents provide you with solid footing for putting your plans into action. Regardless of the amount of space available, these plans can help you maximize its potential.
