BRINGING IT ALL TOGETHER
Together, Miridae’s three branches are hard at work strengthening connections between people, native plants, and wildlife. Our Design-Build team offers landscape design and construction services to homeowners, businesses, and organizations that want to support local ecologies while also creating beautiful spaces. Miridae Mobile Nursery is a roving truck that holds plant sales in neighborhoods and at events all over the greater Sacramento area. Miridae Living Labs is our nonprofit arm that engages in STEM education and conducts research into plants in everyday landscapes.
WHAT DOES MIRIDAE MEAN?
Miridae (mīrəˌdē) is the Latin name for a family of insects known as the “plant bugs,” or mirids. These bugs are a diverse and fascinating group of insects that have coevolved with their native host plants for millions of years, many of which we design into our projects. Billy, the founder and owner of Miridae, has studied these insects for many years and continues to research and look for them in landscapes in and around the Sacramento region.
