Wild Peach Properties
Lane County, Oregon · Regenerative Development
Regenerative housing and community spaces, non-toxic and integrated with productive edible landscapes and green infrastructure, woven with bluescapes and tracked for health and environmental outcomes.
Wild Peach Properties is built on a simple conviction: a healthy, beautiful, and genuinely comfortable home is not a luxury.
We build at multiple scales: single family, multi-family, neighborhood. And across project types: renovation, conversion, and new build. We bring the same standard to all of it: thoughtful design, materials that protect the people inside, and spaces that are genuinely pleasant to live in. There is no contradiction among beautiful, affordable, and healthy.
We are developers building as stewards. Where the project allows we weave foodscapes, greenscapes, and bluescapes into the fabric of the build, because a home is part of a living system.
Wild Peach Properties is an emerging small business based in Lane County, Oregon, dedicated to creating healthy, beautiful, restorative homes and community spaces at every income level. We develop regenerative, affordable residential and mixed-use properties at multiple scales — single family, multi-family, neighborhood — and across project types: renovation, conversion, and new build. We bring as much of our full vision to bear as each project can hold.
[ICON PLACEHOLDERS: Five Commitments icons — to be developed. Not visible on published site.]
Non-toxic materials. Standard. Six Classes™ ⁷ elimination on every project going forward.
Dignified, affordable design. Quality does not vary by income. Every resident deserves a home that is safe, beautiful, and built to last.
Research-grade documentation. Beginning with The Santa Clara House, we track health, environmental, and economic outcomes across our portfolio to build a body of evidence that can change what is considered standard and possible in residential construction.
Bluescape design. Where site conditions allow, we design with water as a living system — daylighting buried streams, respecting riparian edges, and enhancing human access to water while protecting wildlife habitat and ecological function.
Bluescape, Foodscape and Greenscape integration. Where the project allows, productive edible landscapes and ecological green infrastructure are woven into the built environment — not as amenities, but as contributions to food sovereignty, resident wellbeing, and ecological health.

At the core of our larger-scale work is the Integrated Community Platform (ICP), a proprietary development framework we are documenting in real time. We believe the ICP represents a new category in residential development.The ICP treats a community as an interconnected living system: green infrastructure,³ foodscapes,⁴ greenscapes,⁵ bluescapes,⁶ non-toxic housing, community infrastructure, and a replicable construction process integrated and tracked as a whole. The term exists in technology and manufacturing. We are defining it for the built environment.Our goal is to build communities that work and to document how and why they work so the model can be adaptable and replicable across social and economic systems and biomes.

Our vision for community design requires a multi-layered, interactive spatial tool that brings together the natural, historical, cultural, ecological, infrastructural, and economic dimensions of any site into a single, navigable view. Yes, the parcel lines and the zoning map. And also the water moving beneath the surface, the migration routes that shaped settlement, the food systems and ecological corridors and community infrastructures already at work in a place.The decisions that shape a community for generations are made before a single foundation is poured. The Pattern Atlas illuminates these layers.
WPP is actively compiling a list of researchers and institutions whose expertise, interests, and body of work align with our methodology. If your research touches land, community, and the systems that connect them, we want to be in conversation.
Completed renovation · Springfield, Oregon
Our first project under the WPP name, and the one that sharpened our methodology. We specified low-VOC paint throughout, preserved and protected oak millwork and most wood doors and sealed the fireplace to reduce formaldehyde from wood combustion and help stabilize interior climate. These choices reflect our core commitment: every decision either protects the people inside the building or it doesn't.This is also where we first encountered the Six Classes™⁷ framework. And where we recognized that there was more beyond low-VOC. The gap between what we specified and what was possible became the foundation of our current materials protocol. We document that gap honestly. There is truth and lived experience and replicability in the path from questioning to knowing.

Active conversion · Eugene, Oregon
A single-family property being converted into four units, with foodscape integration and green infrastructure elements designed in from the start. This is our first project built fully under our Six Classes™ ⁷ materials protocol, and our first intended research site — where systematic tracking of health, environmental, and process outcomes begins.

We are actively developing proposals for additional sites in Lane County.
We are seeking grant partners, research collaborators, and community organization partnerships across Oregon.
If you are a city planner, university researcher, community development organization, or potential partner in the work of building healthier, more equitable housing — we want to hear from you.

Green infrastructure³ is one component of greenscape.

Water as a design principle and a right — daylighting buried streams, respecting riparian edges, and designing with water as a living system rather than a managed resource.
