Common questions

Do you use an organic approach?

Yes. We use an organic, chemical-conscious approach across design, planting, and ongoing care, working with nature rather than against it.

What areas do you serve?

Cambridge, Somerville, Winchester, Arlington, Brookline, Medford, and Newton, along with nearby towns. Ask if you are just outside that area.

Do you handle both design and ongoing maintenance?

Both. We can design and build a new landscape, care for an existing one, or do a full outdoor overhaul, then keep it looking its best each season.

What if I do not know much about gardening?

That is common. Many of our clients inherited gardens they did not plant. We guide you through the options and handle the rest.

Is the consultation free?

Yes. Send us a note about your project with a few photos of the space, and we will set up a consultation with no obligation.

Do you offer winter services?

Yes, we provide snow management to keep your property safe and clear through the season.
