Our Work

Our work joins the principles of soil building with artistic design, and is delivered through specially chosen native plants, complementary species, and gentle landscape shaping that helps to create robust, self-sustaining soil and plant systems.

Our work includes, but goes beyond, using native plants and keystone species to underscore our landscaping projects.


We lean away from the heavily manicured English garden style that depletes soil reserves and requires excessive resources to maintain. Our focus is on creating a healthy root network that conditions and nourishes the soil as it grows.

With well-built and well-maintained soil, your yard or garden will be a beautiful, sustainable, and important part of Southern Ohio’s ecosystem. Because our work is holistic and forward thinking, we aim to provide a space that is both well-designed and healthy in the long term without the need for major soil restoration later. When you work with us, you won’t simply receive a beautifully designed garden space. You’ll become a steward of a life-giving part of our local biosphere.
