Maintain beautiful self-sustaining gardens organically without lots of labor?

• Pick fresh, nutrient-dense foods from your own backyard?

• Create habitat for the nature you love?

• Build a LEED-certified landscape to help fight climate change?

• Increase the biodiversity and health of your landscape?

Ecological Gardens can help you achieve these goals. We provide a wide range of customized products and services to create and maintain sustainable and productive landscapes. From garden designs to installation to site plans to site assessments & patch design we work with you to develop your site and your skills based on your level of experience and interests.

Our designs apply permaculture design principles. Permaculture seeks to create human landscapes that have the diversity, stability, and resilence of natural ecosystems. At Ecological Gardens, we are committed to assessing the conditions on each site – big or small – and work with you and your site to help lay the foundation for health and abundance.
