“I don’t want to beat people over the head and say, you must conserve all of your water in a bucket, and this is the way to do it. I want them to do it because they want to see that water go down the runnel and they want to see the rain chain and celebrate it.” – Haven Kiers
We address multi-dimensional resilient landscapes. Nature HEALS stands for health, engagement, aesthetics, landscapes, and sustainability.
Haven Kiers is an assistant professor of Landscape Architecture at UC Davis.
