Dreaming of a beautiful, thriving yard but not sure where to start?


That’s where we come in.
We offer a range of services to guide you in creating your own habitat garden. Working together, we’ll transform your property into a captivating, sustainable landscape with our expertise in design and planting.

Our mission goes beyond design. We also offer plant procurement, layout, and planting services, all with sustainability at the core. From native meadowscaping that supports local wildlife to rain gardens that reduce pollution, we create eco-friendly spaces that require minimal maintenance but bring maximum beauty.

As part of our creative process, we often weave in edible plants and border areas with water-wise, pollinator-friendly ornamentals. With a diverse plant palette, we’ll turn your garden into a vibrant, biodiverse habitat full of color, texture, and life.
