- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We talk with you to discover what your wants and needs are. We invite you to look at pictures of what we have done to determine how what we do will meet your needs. We look at your space to assess the optimal place for a garden, considering sunlight and water source. Then we send drawings, a plant list for you to choose what you'd like to grow based on location and time of year, and determine a good time to get started, After we create your garden, or guide you through the steps, we stay in contact with you to ensure its success.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
We are always reading, always experimenting, always researching, and have taken several horticultural classes from The Smiling Gardener Academy and Gaia University.
