Backyard Basecamp
Backyard Basecamp is a Baltimore nonprofit dedicated to reconnecting Black and brown families with nature through land stewardship, outdoor education, and community programming. Working with them has meant creating visuals that honor culture, healing, and the joy of being outside — from seasonal event campaigns to physical materials used out in the field.

To help Backyard Basecamp grow with a recognizable visual presence, we expanded their identity into durable, everyday materials — including letterhead, business cards, tablecloths, welcome flags, and vinyl banners. Our goal was to give their team tools they could proudly use in the field, at events, and in community spaces. These assets helped solidify their brand as both grassroots and grounded.
