About Hop Hopkins
As a certified arborist, Master Gardener, Permaculture Designer, and 
CERT instructor, Hop’s guiding vision is to help establish a network of 
residential food forests that can support the development of stable, 
human-scale solar self-reliant neighborhood communities integrated with 
cooperative local economies. Grassroots environmental justice community 
organizing in Seattle, Portland and Los Angeles, along with several 
years staffing environmental programs with the Los Angeles Conservation 
Corps and the Los Angeles Neighborhood Land Trust put Hop in the unique 
position of knowing a lot about a lot of things.
