What Are The Benefits Of Communication Across The Design + Build + Maintain Sectors?

Nick Cutsumpas, Owner and “Plantrepreneur” Farmer Nick, Los Angeles, California

You need to have that communication [between sectors] otherwise it just won’t work. For example [considering the water restrictions for future maintenance], there are so many options that can replace turf in a client’s front garden.
