Jeremy Ruzich

Jeremy Ruzich serves as Arborist & Grounds Coordinator at Pendle Hill. He has been helping care for the grounds and arboretum since 2022, shortly after moving to the area from his hometown, Kansas City. He is an ISA Certified Arborist and is passionate about cultivating healthy urban forests and healing our species’ relationship with the rest of the natural world. A self-described ecological artist, he works in diverse mediums, including photography, poetry, and sculpture made with carefully collected materials of the forest. A lifelong student of the world’s religions, he thrives in spiritual communities that are diverse, inclusive and rooted in reciprocity – much like the ecosystems and trees he loves and cares for.
