We specialize in regenerative landscape design and duild services.
1) Our first service we'll explain is Design
Design is the first step in crafting a landscape. It provides structure, clarity and reassurance for everyone involved. A design is necessary in creating a smooth transition from the old to the new. So, how do we design?
We take a look at the whole system. This can be in the city. It can also be used for farms, acreages or homesteads. We observe your property and come up with a design that is tailored to you & your space. Our design helps us see how we’ll move your yard closer to a healthy & functioning ecosystem.
We start the design process by discussing your goals, visions and needs. From there, we decide what elements to incorporate. These elements will be part of a system. They will all have their own functions yet simultaneously interact with each other. This creates a web of interconnectedness, just as nature does.
For example, your elements could be a vegetable garden, compost bin and shed. The functions are feeding your family, creating organic matter for the garden and harvesting rainwater off the roof. This creates a dynamic system where the compost bin and harvested rain water help the vegetables grow!
We speialize in custom designs, working with you and the site's specific needs. Each has a specific flow, oriented towards the people and place.
Keep Growing,
