About Us

Living Systems Land Management (LSLM) is a San Francisco based business on the forefront of green and sustainable enterprise.  A leader in our industry, LSLM provides Resource Management and Consulting Service focused on Ecological Fuel and Fire Mitigation and non-chemical weed abatement using grazing animals within the Urban-Wildland Interface: the area most susceptible to catastrophic wildfire.  LSLM provides Fire Mitigation Grazing Service to communities throughout the state, integrating community-based and ecologically informed models to prevent catastrophic wildfire and to restore degrading lands.  LSLM is committed to the promotion and advancement of sustainability, to the protection of our communities from catastrophic wildfire, and to enhancing our valuable natural resources within the greater Bay Area and California megaregions.  LSLM is directed by the premise and core value that sustainable and ecological practices are essential for successful and viable business.  LSLM recognizes the importance of environmental and sustainable practice within the evolving marketplace, where 'green' and environmental practice has become fundamental to the market - both in terms of profitability and for the health and welfare of our communities, families and ecosystems.  LSLM provides unmatched customer care and service, where long-term business relationships are valued and actively developed through multiyear contracting, direct marketing of long-term services, value-added long term services provided at discounted rates, and through our Community Outreach Programs.  In order to provide the most cost efficient and ecological service, LSLM endeavors to create relevant and highly customized services for individuals, neighborhoods and municipal agencies serving the public interest.  LSLM service is affordable, professional, reliable and intelligent.   Through various partnerships within the resource management, fire mitigation and conservation communities, our highly skilled and qualified staff provide a service that is unique, well informed, friendly and unparalleled within the industry.

LSLM was incorporated in January of 2003.  We are a small business, a corporation and collective of individuals with various interests and training that shares similar ecological values and social goals.  Our primary interests involve the application and construction of sustainable systems built upon ecologically sound principles.  Our work is informed by a multidisciplinary approach drawing from the ecological, anthropological, and psychological sciences.  LSLM incorporates a holistic model that derives from the concepts of Whole Systems and the paradigms set forth within the Human Resource Management model.

We are engaged with the ideas of sustainability, localism and collaboration.  Through our business activities LSLM consciously participates in the “new” “green ethos” that is emerging as the most viable structure for human activity in our post-modern world.  Through our collaborations with small farms and local governments we endeavor to reinvigorate commerce structures that support sustainable action within communities, while increasing the economic and social viability of ecological practice within these communities.

Our bottom line is sustainability.   Sustainability is realized through collaboration, community building and, more directly, through the science and practice of Environmentalism.  That is, decision-making based upon the requisite and mandate of local ecosystems and resource environments, and upon our essential collective role within these environments
