What we do
Initial Site Assessment
This initial visit includes:
A 1-2 hour “walk around the property” to identify the homeowner’s landscape priorities
This initial site assessment will also identify opportunities for the homeowner to create a healthy habitat that supports our local ecosystem
Deliverables include a summary of existing conditions, a rough design/sketch of garden beds, and recommendations for plant species
Landscape Design
For clients needing additional detail, we provide:
A scaled design that may include a demolition plan, if necessary
A detailed planting plan with proposed species
Plant layout
Details on plant quantities for each species
When appropriate, the design many also include recommendations for hardscaping
The design also includes steps needed to prep the area and recommendations for phased implementation, if needed. I will work with clients to source and purchase the plants.
NOTE: We provide clear hand drawings. We do not use computer aided design software (CAD)
Project Installation
Once we begin project installation:
We work with several local contractors who do the actual installation work
We oversee the installation — in particular the plant layout — but the actual contract for this phase is between the homeowner and the installation firm.
A client can also elect to do the project themselves, in which case we turn the design over to them.
Maintenance
We work with clients to help them maintain their beautiful gardens in a way that continues to support a healthy habitat while also creating beauty during the winter months.
