Habitat-Focused

Design + Planting

You’re relaxing in your own native meadow, snacking on sun-warmed blueberries while hummingbirds zip through blooming wildflowers. Sounds dreamy, right? Let’s make it real.

At Green Seed Gardens, we design habitat gardens that bring your landscape to life — not just visually, but ecologically. Whether you’re envisioning a cozy firepit nestled into your Pacific Northwest native plant corner, a pollinator paradise buzzing with bees, or a rain garden that manages stormwater with style, we’re here to help make it happen.

Not sure where to start? That’s totally okay — we’ll walk you through it. Our process can include everything from thoughtful design and plant selection to layout and planting. We focus on Oregon natives, but we can also weave in edibles and tough, drought-tolerant perennials to suit your space and lifestyle. It’s all about creating a garden that’s functional, beautiful, and good for the planet.

We’re currently booking for Design work with planting set for Fall/Winter 2025. So if this sounds like your kind of garden, click below to learn more and schedule your site visit.

Let’s grow something wild — and just right for you.
