Signature ProjectFood forestTerracingSoil building
From barren shale to living abundance.
The project
A challenging half-acre hillside — thin soil over shale, serious erosion potential —
transformed into a productive, self-sustaining ecosystem with perennial edible gardens
installed around the entire house.
What was built
Custom terracing to maximize growing space and prevent erosion
Over 100 edible and medicinal species carefully selected and installed
Beneficial soil biology introduced to build living soil systems on poor ground
Native wildflowers integrated for year-round pollinator support
A dedicated medicinal garden installation
Why it matters
Mountain Ridge demonstrates regenerative agriculture principles at residential scale: a
site most contractors would write off as “bad soil” became a food-producing landscape
precisely because the design started with soil biology instead of fighting the hillside.
The outcome
A self-sustaining food production system that gets more abundant every season — food,
medicine, habitat, and beauty on ground that once grew almost nothing.
