The Natural Landscaping Process
Natural landscaping design begins with thoroughly assessing your yard’s topography, microclimate, and access to water and sunlight.
From there, our landscaping team works to develop a custom natural landscaping plan designed to meet your needs and desires and fulfill what we seek to accomplish. Our process involves planting native species well-suited to the local climate and soil conditions, reducing the need for irrigation and chemical inputs.
It also encourages the creation of habitats for birds, pollinators, and other wildlife, fostering biodiversity within the homeowner's outdoor space. This approach can lead to a more environmentally friendly and resilient landscape that contributes positively to the overall ecological health of the region.
