Garden Studio
Creating outdoor spaces that thrive on less — less water, less maintenance, more living.
Our Garden Studio helps homeowners transform underused yards into purposeful spaces — places that support pollinators, conserve water, grow beauty (and sometimes food), and make outdoor living easier.
We combine thoughtful design with practical systems:
Native and climate-adapted plants
Layered beds that evolve over time
Low-input soil practices
Optional edible integrations
Hardscape that lets your yard breathe

I design gardens that feel like home — not just pretty, but functional, intentional, and deeply tied to place.
Whether your dream yard is wild, structured, or serene, I help bring it to life in a way that works with your schedule, your yard, and your local climate.

What we care about…
Work with the land, not against it.
From slope to shade to soil, we design based on what’s already here — and how to make it thrive.
Less water. Less waste. Less worry.
We use climate-smart plants, no-fuss layouts, and low-maintenance practices that make caring for your yard easy (and fun).
More purpose. More life. More you.
Your yard should reflect your rhythms — whether that means outdoor dinners, birdwatching, or homegrown thyme.
