    LEARNING

    An adventure best shared with other curious minds.

  • Growing Things

    Gardens have the ability to draw us in, to relax us, and show the world just a glimpse of our essential selves at ground level. Gardens add an element of completion to the built landscape.

    Placement & Planting

    Understanding how and where to place plant material can make the difference between surviving and thriving. Spacing, soil amendments, and aesthetic arrangement all play a role in creating a bountiful, unified look.

    RESTORATION

    Landscape restoration is a planned process that aims to restore ecological integrity in degraded landscapes (often the result of building, renovating or establishing new services). Restoration aims to rebuild ecosystems, to improve water quality, to re-habituate species, and to create healthier soils which creates healthier vegetation.

  • Large Elements

    Trees and lawns are substantial-sized elements in the horticultural landscape. They, too, need health and care to thrive.

    LAWN INSTALLATION

    The secret to a beautiful lawn is in its underlying structure. A well-built lawn requires less maintenance and tolerates more wear. Spring and fall are the best times to install new lawns, but (with extra care) lawns can be installed throughout the growing season.

    TREE SERVICES

    We consult with and contract a certified, tree-climbing arborist for specialist tree work. We work together to make a plan for tree health and rejuvenation, cabling, re-shaping, and removal in limiting areas.
