Reconnect with Nature with Thoughtfully Designed Outdoor Living Spaces in Bedford, NY

Sustainable Outdoor Living Designed for Comfort, Beauty, and Ecological Balance

Outdoor living should be more than just an extension of your home—it should be an experience that connects you with nature while enhancing the functionality and beauty of your property. At Green Jay Landscape Design, we create custom outdoor living spaces in Bedford, New York, that prioritize ecological health and responsible land stewardship. Every project is designed with the environment in mind, using 100% natural, organic Earth-sourced materials that promote soil health, support biodiversity, and reduce harmful toxic exposures.

Our approach is rooted in sustainability and thoughtful design. We focus on creating outdoor spaces that invite relaxation, gathering, and interaction with nature while ensuring the long-term health of the land. By integrating elements such as stormwater management solutions, native plantings, and toxin-free materials, we build landscapes that are as environmentally responsible as they are visually appealing.

With years of experience in Bedford and the surrounding areas, we have developed a streamlined process that makes your outdoor project both stress-free and rewarding. Our high-end presentation materials—including detailed planting plans, curated hardscape selections, and a "Beneficials" poster showcasing the wildlife your landscape will support—help you visualize the final design before installation begins. We also work with a trusted network of partners to ensure seamless coordination of every phase, from irrigation and fencing to custom carpentry and organic maintenance services.

A well-designed outdoor space enhances your quality of life, adds value to your home, and provides a sanctuary for pollinators, birds, and other beneficial wildlife. Whether you envision an elegant patio for entertaining, a peaceful retreat with water features and native plantings, or a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, our team is ready to bring your vision to life. Contact Green Jay Landscape Design today to get started on a sustainable outdoor living space in Bedford, NY.

How We Design and Build Outdoor Spaces with Ecological Integrity

Over our years of experience in the Westchester County, New York tri-state area, we've refined our process to ensure outstanding results for our clients. This is what to expect when you work with us:

Step 1 - Site Protection & Construction Layout

Complete necessary site protection: mark utilities and hazards and install erosion control and mature tree protection. Layout approved design on-site.

Step 2 - Site Development & Land Clearing

Perform necessary grading, terraforming, terracing, and/or excavating to prepare the land for design development.

Step 3 - Hardscape & Plant Materials Selection

We hand-select each and every tree, shrub, perennial, boulder, and path/patio stone used in our projects. Details define a design!

Step 4 - Installation & Construction of Hardscape

Green Jay Landscaping's expert masonry teams craft natural stone walkways, patios, retaining walls, staircases, and more. We also work with stucco and stone veneer. Driveway siting and installation (gravel, Belgium block, curbing, and edging) is also in our purview.

Step 5 - Delineate Planting Beds & Amend Soil

Green Jay Landscape Design garden crews mark out new planting beds, weed and/or dethatch the area, and amend soil with organic compost, biochar, and bio-stimulants. Soil tests may reveal additional recommendations.

Step 6 - Planting

Our designers finalize plant placement on-site, collaborating with the client to ensure views are accentuated and screened perfectly. Plantings range from trees to shrubs, perennials, annuals, containers, and vertical gardens. Install crews follow organic horticulture planting techniques and edge beds.

Step 7 - Irrigation & Finishing

Proper irrigation is the key to a successful garden. Following a custom irrigation installation by our Preferred Providers, planting beds are mulched and finished.

Step 8 - Outdoor Lighting

Our Preferred Providers design and install  custom landscape lighting plans.

Step 9 - Walkthrough

Final walkthrough with client and designer to ensure ultimate satisfaction with the project. Modifications made if necessary. Project closes, local maintenance providers recommended or Residential Sustainable Stewardship begins.
