    On-site Consultation

    Discover the natural potential of your land.
    Devon will visit with you in-person, on-site. Whether it’s a quick examination for a native balcony planting, or a tour of a dozen acres in the country, we can help you understand your ecosystem. Price varies based on location and project complexity; final estimate will be provided after the initial consulting call.

    Whether you’re just getting started or already nurturing a thriving habitat, we provide site-specific guidance on:

    - Existing natural features and ecological assets

    - Opportunities for enhancing biodiversity

    - Risks posed by invasive species

    - Strategies for restoration or management

    Includes: On-site visit, resource overview, and follow-up summary with tailored recommendations.

    Natural garden design & installation

    Landscaping with big ecological benefits.
    We offer design, plant sourcing, and installation for all-native gardens that:

    - Support pollinators and beneficial insects

    - Bring site-appropriate and beautiful plants to the home garden

    - Manage stormwater and reduce runoff

    - Add beauty and purpose to your landscape

    We’ll help you plan a garden that suits your space, your style, and the needs of your local ecosystem. We can also work directly with your hardscape landscaper to fill the area with indigenous plants! Pricing will vary based on size and complexity of planting.

    Lawn replacement

    Take the plunge into habitat gardening.

    We will help you replace part or all of your lawn with native, site-appropriate plants. More than just throwing out a seed mix, we will design and install a thoughtfully designed meadow that provides beauty and benefits.

    Includes: On-site visit(s), lawn kill options + execution, planting design, and installation.

    Invasive Plant Management

    Kill some plants to save ecosystems.

    Japanese knotweed, barberry, bittersweet vine, buckthorn, goutweed, and more - these have to go, and I can help. We can discuss various treatment options.

    Pollinator meadows

    Larger-scale benefit for bees and butterflies.

    If you have a large lawn, field, or other available space to devote to a habitat garden, lets make it happen. A pollinator meadow could be a large (>¼ acre) seeding of native grasses and wildflowers, just for bees and butterflies! These meadow plantings are more free-form than a residential garden design. I will work with you to determine placement and species selection, or help execute a design you may already have prepared.

    Ecological Mapping & Historical Context

    Understand the story of your landscape.
    Through ecological mapping, we help you explore:

    - What habitats may have occurred on your land historically

    - How soils, topography, and climate shape what can thrive there today

    - What restoration strategies are best suited to your site

    Ideal for landowners curious about their property's natural identity and potential.

    Includes: site-visit and property walk, pre-visit mapping and reports, post-visit report with plant identification and management guidance
