What you leave with
Many landscapes become high-maintenance because the structure isn't working—plants are crowded, weeds and invasives exploit open ground, or soil is depleted.

We assess what's driving the work: growth patterns, soil health, weeds and invasives, and priorities.
Step 2: Practical plan
A maintenance approach aligned with your goals and the time you want to spend in the yard.

Frequently asked questions
What is different about your landscape maintenance?+
We focus on long-term stability, not just trimming. That means pruning for plant health, preventing weeds and invasives from taking over, improving soil when needed, and making recommendations that reduce maintenance over time.
Do you maintain traditional gardens as well as native or ecological landscapes?+
Yes. We maintain traditional gardens, mixed plantings, and ecological or native-forward landscapes. We tailor the plan to your goals, site conditions, and the level of maintenance you want long-term.
Do you offer seasonal cleanups?+
Yes. Spring and fall cleanups are available, and we time cutting and removal in ways that support plant health and when applicable pollinators and beneficial insects.
Can maintenance include invasive species removal?+
Yes. Invasive plant control can be included as part of maintenance, especially when invasives are driving recurring problems. For major infestations, we may recommend dedicated invasive removal with follow-up visits.
How do we start?+
We start with a site visit to review your landscape, identify the main problem drivers, and recommend a practical maintenance plan based on your goals and schedule.
