Backcountry Casitas Q&A Session

About the Backcountry Casitas Project:

Whether you’re an architect, contractor, design-build team, artist, hobbyist, or student, the Garden needs your help building nature playhouses that encourage the community – especially families – to get outdoors and play in the natural world. Every two years, we host an open call for applications and select up to four “casitas” designs to be built in the Backcountry. We are now accepting submissions for our 2025 program.

Have Questions?

If you’re interested and want to learn more, we will be hosting a pre-design Zoom meeting on Wednesday, May 7, 2025 at 5:30 p.m. (PST). This open forum will be hosted by the Garden’s Director of Education and Engagement Scot Pipkin. Participants will learn more about how we’ll be selecting our winning casitas and directly ask questions.
