ABOUT LORI
After many years of working in the corporate IT world, Lori transitioned to pursue her passion in sustainable landscape design and organic gardening. Lori uses her experience in permaculture and organic gardening to design landscapes that mimic the native surroundings, bringing forth landscapes that are peaceful, edible, easy to maintain, and that reinvigorate local habitats. She completed the requirements for the Rutgers Cooperative Extension Organic Land Care Program, and is an ardent supporter of urban farming, edible gardening, and sustainability of all forms.
