We think of restoration as the act of building a relationship with a place. Hopefully after spending so much time getting to know your site and engaging in exciting activities there, you and it have that relationship and like any good friendship you hope it will last. Stewardship is what we have to do to be in it for the foreseeable future. You have made a commitment to your project to be there in the long term; through good times and bad. We need to make observations and work actively to further and support the goals we made and the work we have done. Like friendships if we don’t put in a little effort, they slip away. Too many projects get through the installation phase only to be abandoned. We will show you what you can do to develop a stewardship plan for your site that includes maintenance and monitoring to track change, set benchmarks for success, actionable thresholds for maintenance, and allow you to report and publicize the results of your hard work.
Long term commitments can seem overwhelming. We hope that with good information about your site and the tools we provide we can help make long term stewardship seem as easy as catching up with an old friend.
