The mission of local ecology is to document and advocate for nature making and nature makers.

Nature-made sites are designed to provide habitat, especially for small, highly mobile species like birds and butterflies; to store carbon; to intercept rainfall and slow runoff; and to cool and filter air.

The project is managed by Georgia Silvera Seamans, former urban forester and now doctoral candidate studying the evolution of street tree provision and conceptualization in California cities.
