DESIGN
What's so special about your landscape? A lot. Meet your goals affordably and ecologically, while finding the design that arises out of this uniqueness, and yours.

Contact Julie to discuss whether an informal design, or a full plan (with conceptual, grading, drainage, planting, and construction drawings), might best meet your needs and budget.

INSTALLATION
We offer full service landscape installations that can be phased in over time at your pace.

We are insured and our plants are guaranteed for one year.

Phytoremediate mild contamination from lead and other heavy metals and organic pollutants

Maintain rooftop and storefront planters, gardens, meadows, and woodlands

CONSULTATIONS
This might be an informal design brainstorm on the fly, or a plan we work out with you to budget, and care for your landscape with confidence.
