Down-to-Earth Gardens, Inc.
Our goal is to design custom landscapes that are functional, beautiful and most importantly, make you happy. A garden is a refuge and a space to be enjoyed in all four seasons. Here in the Pacific Northwest, we have moderate temperatures influenced by the ocean which enables us to grow a  variety of plants. A thriving work in progress, the success of any landscape is based upon good soil, careful plant selection, attention to detail and listening to clients.

Perhaps you need someone to give you suggestions. An hour-long consultation can answer a lot of questions. Let Down-to-Earth Gardens give you suggestions for materials, techniques and ideas from a sustainable perspective. We discuss bed prep, soil types, plant selections and how your needs dictate your choices. Let us get you on your way with creative vision. Call us for a consultation. We welcome your inquiries and hope to hear from you.

Solutions
What can we do for you? Read on to see what steps are needed to bring your project to life.

Implementation
Designs can be implemented in their entirety, or "phased-in"--installed in stages. We develop a design aesthetic and follow through with it.

Maintenance
Maintaining a landscape after it has been installed is critical. Nature will reclaim her own quickly with the help of weeds, birds, the wind, and expected growth.
