A ZEN initiaTIVE

We are an interdisciplinary team of systems thinkers that rely on Biomimicry science to design, implement, and improve scalable local solutions to our global problems. We design our initiatives to create positive social, environmental, health, and community impacts for as many people as possible. Our initiatives foster the symbiotic relationships of Nature and are the basis of our company name: Another ZEN initiaTIVE, or AZENTIVE

Through our initiatives, we act to integrate our skills, backgrounds, and resources for the benefit of local communities. We are focused on building local initiatives that address global challenges, especially focused on addressing food security, as well as climate change and its impacts. The two are intricately connected. 

We understand that our own health is dependent on the health of our soil, our plants, and the rest of the Earth’s systems. Through our numerous collaborations over the last five years, we have designed the short-term and longer-term (faded on graphic to the left) projects that make up the first Zen initiative.
