The Independent Gardener

About

The Independent Gardener uses Organic Landscape Gardening practices. We do not use chemicals or pesticides and work with local supplies (mulch, stone) and native plants whenever possible.

Every family is unique, and the outdoor space at your home is a unique reflection as well. The most important criteria are YOU and YOUR VISION.

We purchased a new home last year, and the yard hadn’t been kept up very well - overflowing hedges around the side and back of our yard, lots of undergrowth, no edges around the flowerbeds, and few flowers anywhere. Riley pruned and trimmed the hedges and plants we wanted to keep, got rid of the things that we didn’t want, created new beds, and spruced up old beds with new plantings and mulch. He also completely cleared our narrow side yard of weeds and an unwanted sedge, putting down a neat pathway of crushed gravel that keeps maintenance low and makes the area look really clean. He was helpful in helping us choose which plants to put where, and ensuring that we would be left with a beautiful starter yard that’s easy to maintain going forward. We loved working with him as he is patient, knowledgeable, and sincerely wants to help you get the yard you envision. We plan to continue to call on The Independent Gardener for future projects.
