FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically our process starts with an interview of the customer to best gage their needs and desires for their garden or yard.

Describe a recent project you are fond of.
Favorite project from last season was a native perennial garden on a small plot in Long Beach. The home owner loved to be in her garden and wanted native plants that would cultivate the native pollinators on Long Island. I'm truly excited for an upcoming Living Wall installation. These projects are always out of the norm so it's fun to try something different.
