River St. Joe Brewery | Flatwater Farms | Buchanan, Michigan

Jessica Dune (formerly JMLA) executed an extensive site analysis of hydrology, cultural and ecological context, views, slope and aspect, soils, circulation, and community connectivity for a 400-acre property that was formerly logged, and is currently being assessed for a gentle, harmonious combination of mixed use development, the inclusion of affordable housing, a trail system, reforestation, and more in a beautiful coastal village that has seasonal recreational tourism, but not many amenities for the local community.

SMORE Youth and Family Campground | Andrew Molera State Park | Big Sur, California

Working closely with Ventana Wildlife Society, and after a thorough ecological and program site analysis, Jessica Dune (formerly JMLA) designed a master plan for a youth and family camp, known as SMORE (“Space for Meaningful Outdoor Recreation + Education). VWS, a conservation organization that also does California condor recovery, will use this site to run their nature immersion program for local youth and families with less access to wilderness. The program is in a special use area within Andrew Molera State Park near the Big Sur River within one of the most beloved of the region’s state parks. One of the most rewarding community projects with a beautiful mission - to help everyone feel more at home in nature!
