Certified Wildlife Habitat

Larchmont, NY

Green Jay Landscape Design created a phased Landscape Development Master Plan to incorporate more designed habitat.

We designed and constructed a natural swimming pond and waterfall, purified by an adjacent bog garden (that’s right, no chlorine!).

A mixed border garden for pollinators frames the rear yard. In the front yard, the lawn was removed and replaced with a layered shade planting.
