Matthew C. (Quint) Redmond is the co-founder and Managing Member of Agriburbia LLC, a pioneering firm at the intersection of agriculture, design, and community development. With over 25 years of experience in design and geospatial technologies and more than 30 years in agriculture, Quint has become a national leader in integrating commercial-scale agriculture into urban and rural planning.

His innovative work has been featured in publications such as CNU and Landscape Architecture, and he has consulted on agricultural development and policy initiatives in 22 states and internationally. Quint holds a Bachelor’s degree in Geology from Tulane University, along with dual Master’s degrees in Urban and Regional Planning and Landscape Architecture from the University of Colorado. He is also a licensed Landscape Architect in Colorado.

Driven by a lifelong curiosity about where food comes from and how communities are formed, Quint blends food, health, agriculture, real estate, technology, and design to create more sustainable and economically viable environments. His mission is to help clients and communities imagine and build a healthier, more vibrant planet—and to do so in a way that is financially successful and forward-thinking.

Currently I teach Site Design Implementation and Site Planning and Design courses, where I thread elements of practice into the coursework to unlock the latent technical creativity in my students through focused examinations of the relationships between early design and visual thinking stages to the actual implementation and physical manifestation of those early ideas. Craft and skill are cornerstones of this coursework, with the development of proficiency and skill in the use of the tools appropriate to the deliverable (whether computer software, drawing tools or hand/power tools) being a key learning objective.
