Guided DIY Landscaping
Your sweat equity. Our expertise.
Build and care for your own landscape with a professional plan, practical guidance, and support all along the way.
A Different Way to DIY
Doing it yourself doesn't mean doing it alone. We'll handle the planning and help you understand what to plant, where it goes, how to install it, and how to care for it afterward. You choose how much of the hands-on work you want to take on yourself.

Want Some Help With the Heavy Lifting?
Doing it yourself doesn't mean you have to do everything yourself. Choose the support that makes sense for your project and leave the rest to us.
Material Procurement & Delivery
Skip the shopping, hauling, and hunting down materials. We can locally source your approved plants and landscape materials and deliver them to your property, ready for you to get to work.
Soil & Bed Preparation
Start with a better foundation. We can handle compost, soil amendments, or more involved bed preparation before you take over the installation.
Dripline Irrigation
Set your new landscape up for easier, more efficient watering. We can help incorporate dripline irrigation into your project so your plants receive targeted water at the root zone.
Partial Professional Installation
Want to DIY some of the project but not all of it? Depending on the scope, we may be able to professionally complete portions of the installation while you tackle the rest.
You Built It. We'll Help You Care for It.
Your included DIY Care Guide gives you clear, practical guidance for watering, pruning, fertilizing, and caring for your landscape as it grows
A Little Support Down the Road
Six Month Landscape Training & Touch-Up
Once your new landscape has had time to establish, we'll return for a landscape touch-up to refresh the beds and address the natural growth that comes with establishment.
We'll also train and structurally prune young plants where appropriate to encourage healthy growth, natural form, and strong structure as your landscape matures.
