I can help you create the garden of your dreams
I am available to help with garden advising, planning, installation, and maintenance. Advising and planning services can be virtual or in-person. All installation and maintenance services are in-person.
Advising Session
-
These sessions can take place virtually or in your garden.
I’ll answer questions you have about caring for your landscape, help you identify plants, make plans, and whatever else you’d like advising on. Schedule as many of these as you’d like.
These visits do not include my doing physical gardening work for you. For that kind of help, see the “working visit” option.
-
$50 for a virtual advising session
$75 for an in-person advising session in your garden
Garden Design
-
After learning about your needs, garden dreams, and the specifics of your landscape, I will create a detailed garden design plan to be implemented by me (see “working visit” option) or by you.
The design will include specific information about recommended plants.
-
Design cost varies by the size and comlexities of your garden. I will visit with you first to determine an appropriate design fee. Designs can range from plans for a single small bed all the way to your whole yard and everything in between.
Working Visit
-
This is a working visit; I’ll come get my hands in the dirt in your garden!
This could include regular maintenance visits, bed preparation, installations, and everything in between.
We’ll discuss in advance what kind of gardening help makes the most sense for you.
If you’re looking to make large changes to your yard I will prepare a garden design plan (additional fee, see “garden design” option).
Note: hourly rate does not include plants and other materials that stay in your garden.
-
The cost for this will vary depending on what work I’m doing for you! Let’s talk and I can give you an estimate based on your project and needs.
