Elizabeth is an ecologist, author, permaculture planner, painter, and sixth-generation Texan. With over 20 years of experience, her company, Land Steward, produces site-specific ecosystem management plans for Hill Country landowners. As the author of Wanted! Mountain Cedars, Dead and Alive, Elizabeth teaches that mountain cedar trees (limestone junipers) regenerate and sustain Texas karst country soils, groundwaters, and biodiversity. In 2022, she founded Project Bedrock, now in partnership with The Watershed Association, to continue teaching that mountain cedars are part of the solution, not the problem. She serves as program director, provides presentations and testimonies, and has begun working on a mountain cedar-focused decision support tool for landowners.
