Scott and Rod collaborated in 2007, as the first people on the Nicoya Peninsula of Costa Rica to bring permaculture workshops and education to the area. They created and conducted international group workshops through an event known as the Aristotle Gathering.

In 2015 he started (AIR) Farm project in Walterboro, South Carolina where trail systems and tree houses were constructed in the forest using only reclaimed or donated materials. 2018 brought collaboration with other groups to present Shamrock Skill Share and Family Farm Feast on (AIR) Farm. A partnership between ICS, Inc. and Colleton High School allowed the opportunity to convert a dead space into an outdoor edible classroom with the help of special needs students. This was an ongoing weekly project for 3 consecutive years. 2019 saw the same collaborative team from AIR Farm organize Abundance Music and Arts Festival 1 & 2 with a total of over 25 live music bands, 30 vendors and artists.
