Meet Todd

Todd Breitenstein: The Grateful Gardner

Known for being the person who stops mid-hike to turn over logs and smell the earth, Todd has been growing his passion for plants since he could walk.

With formal training in Environmental Policy, Ecological Restoration, Conservation, Permaculture Design, and Organic Land Care, Todd founded The Ecology of You™ to guide people in restoring their lives following the principles that restore the earth.

He is also the founder Our Grateful Garden, a non-profit dedicated to growing community gardens, and is co-founder of South Shore Permaculture.

A tree hugger through and through, Todd's calling is land healing and teaching others to harmonize with nature.

If you're looking for someone who can make ecological restoration accessible and exciting, you've found him!
