Testimonials
Are you a new gardener like me? If so, I highly recommend Down To Earth Gardening for their top notch consulting services. Lisa is very knowledgeable and has been quick to answer any questions I have had. She has provided me with solutions that will guarantee success with my new raised garden. Make sure you check out the youtube how to videos they have done also. I planted sweet pea seeds for the first time after watching Lisa’s video and have been excited to see the progress they have made
The decision to have Down to Earth Gardening & Design do our Spring cleanup was one of the best I have made! A well established greenhouse and garden center referred them to me so they come with a great reputation! They are thorough, timely and efficient. They trim my bushes (even the very tall ones), cut my grasses, clear the leaves and mulch every flower bed. Last year, they replaced a rhododendron and matched it perfectly with the existing landscape (in color and size). Having them come annually relieves us of the heavy work and allows us to focus on enjoying our beautiful yard!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my new landscaping area and garden beds! My yard looks fantastic! The Plants and shrubs are so pretty! My neighbors keep giving me compliments. Lisa, Josh and the Down to Earth Gardening team are AWESOME to work with!
