Services
Lawn Maintenance
Our comprehensive lawn maintenance includes weekly mowing during growing seasons, seasonal cleanups, and edging services. We utilize grass-cycling techniques to return nutrients to soil while maintaining optimal grass height. Our team handles debris removal and provides winter weed control to maintain year-round lawn health.
Organic Fertilizer
This 7-step program uses Holganix compost tea to improve soil health naturally. Applications include organic fertilizers, soil conditioners, and pre-biotics delivered seasonally. The program reduces chemical dependency while strengthening grass root systems through improved soil microbiology.
Paver Patios
We design and install custom paver patios using natural stone or concrete materials. Our services include drainage planning, material selection, and installation of outdoor kitchens, fire pits, and retaining walls. Projects integrate with existing landscapes for cohesive outdoor living spaces.
Plant Installation
Our plant services include seasonal color beds, shrub installations, and landscape renovations. We offer design consultations with scaled plans and plant selection tailored to site conditions. Installation includes proper spacing, mulching, and maintenance planning for long-term plant health.
Pest Control
We provide targeted pest control treatments for trees and shrubs using environmentally responsible herbicides. Services include monitoring, early detection, and multi-application treatments for severe infestations. Our staff identifies pest species and applies appropriate control measures to protect plant health.
