Cultivating whole systems landscapes for sustainability, community, and learning.
Transform your outdoor spaces and your relationships to them.
Resilience Design offers a suite of design and consultation services to urban and rural land stewards.
Our mission is to foster reconnection with our ecosystems and seasonal cycles through collaborations that engage, inspire, and honor the land.
Welcome.
I’m Mulysa Melco, founder of Resilience Design. My team and I are passionate about supporting a deeper, relational approach to land use + tending, growing food, and supporting habitats through whole-systems thinking, permaculture, preparedness and mindful landscape design.
