Investing in Resilient Green Infrastructure with Kate Ancaya of Living Roofs, Inc.

Investing in Resilient Green Infrastructure with Kate Ancaya of Living Roofs, Inc.

On this episode, we welcome Kate Ancaya, founding partner and design principal at Living Roofs, Inc., a firm out of Asheville, NC that specializes in creating green roofs and landscape on structure. As Kate dives into building plant communities in unlikely spaces, she explains the beauty and benefits behind this growing method of infrastructure and resilience. Kate reminds us that resilience starts in our backyards (or roofs!) and as we bring nature back into our everyday lives - whether that's through a living roof or a pollinator garden - we can shift nature-based designs from simply being accepted in our communities to becoming the standard.
