A Nature-Rooted Sanctuary

Haus of Avani re-imagines vacant city parcels as living chapels where ecological restoration and inner renewal happen side-by-side.

Instead of pews, we sow prairie wildflowers; instead of stained glass, we raise solar pergolas that shimmer with clean energy.

Every act of planting, harvesting rainwater, or sharing story-circles beneath the moon becomes a devotional practice honoring Mother Nature while nurturing the human spirit.

Why This Matters

Planet - People - Prosperity

  • Re-greening cities heals ecosystems. A single pocket-prairie (≈100 sq ft) can boost local bee richness by up to 70 %—critical when North America has lost more than a quarter of its insects since 1970.

  • Nature time heals us. A 2025 Stanford-Leiden meta-study shows just 15 minutes in urban green space measurably lowers stress, anxiety, and depression markers in city dwellers. New York Post

  • Eco-infrastructure pays back. Each 3 kW solar pergola generates up to 4.9 MWh of clean power annually offsetting ~3.7 t CO₂ and saving thousands in municipal energy costs over its lifetime. Sungold Solar

When land, people, and capital cooperate, everyone wins.

  • We exist to nurture spiritual and emotional well-being through nature-based wisdom, compassionate guidance, and rhythmic harmony with Earth.

    1. Nature-Based Wisdom – We teach soil science and sun salutations in the same breath, because understanding microbes and honoring morning light both cultivate reverence.

    2. Compassionate Guidance – Trained stewards mentor neighbors, children, and returning citizens alike, turning vacant lots into apprenticeships in hope.

    3. Rhythmic Harmony – Programming follows lunar phases and seasonal thresholds: new-moon intention circles, equinox seed swaps, solstice night markets powered by our own solar arrays.

  • Initiative Impact

    Pocket-Prairie Power Pods

    (solar pergola + rain-cistern + native meadow)

    • 16 vacant lots converted.

    • 78 native plant species seeded.

    • 25 MWh clean energy fed to free charging benches and illuminating new community third spaces.

    • 290 k gal stormwater diverted.

    Avani Gardens Learning Meadow One-acre demonstration site hosting community workshops, 600 student visits, and donating 1,500 lbs of produce to neighborhood pantries

    Garden-School Zines & Pop-Ups 5,000 free children’s magazines downloaded, plus roaming weekend “Garden School Days” that put bug nets and soil microscopes into tiny hands

  • Imagine driving past what was once a weedy lot and seeing children releasing monarch butterflies, neighbors charging phones under a solar pergola, and data dashboards reporting pollinator rebounds in real time.

    Your capital does more than erect infrastructure, it writes a living love-letter to future generations:

    “The true meaning of life is to plant trees under whose shade you do not expect to sit.” - Nelson Henderson

    • Regenerative ROI – Each dollar seeds biodiversity, mental-health dividends, and climate resilience measurable in public datasets.

    • Story Equity – Investors are credited on site signage and in our annual “Health of the Meadow” report, stories that resonate far beyond traditional CSR metrics.

    • Compound Impact – Because we teach people to replicate our blueprints, one funded lot sparks many: Cleveland alone has 18,000+ eligible parcels, and other Great Lakes cities are watching.
