About Me

Humming Bee
Patricia Algara has a masters in Landscape Architecture from UC Berkley and she is a certified Permaculture designer. Strongly influenced by her two grandfathers, one an architect the other a rancher, Patricia has an appreciation for beautifully designed food-productive landscapes, an art she calls foodscaping. She is a founder and principal at BASE Landscape Architecture, a design studio specializing in edible landscapes and urban farms, anything from a large corporate campus that wants to convert their lawns into edibles to a garden urban farm with chickens and bees to container gardens on a deck or roof. Always applying organic and permaculture principles in the design and implementation. Patricia has always had a passion for empowering communities, and believes that self sufficiency is a critical means for achieving it. She is an avid bee tender who strives to apply in her design, what she has learned from the bees; a beautiful, highly functional, organic organism with perfect geometry in every cell.
