FAQ
How much does an installation cost?
Most projects range from $1,500–$20,000+, depending on the size of the site, the complexity of the design, and the materials involved. We also offer phased installation options and DIY support to fit your budget.
Do I need a full design before getting started?
A design helps us give you an accurate estimate and install the right plants and systems for your site. You can bring your own plan or work with us to create one.
Can you help me install part of the project while I do the rest?
Definitely. We’re happy to support hybrid installs—like prepping beds, sourcing plants, project management, or setting up key systems—while you handle the rest at your own pace.
What areas do you serve?
We work primarily in the Portland metro area and nearby communities. For larger or mission-aligned projects, we may travel farther—just reach out to see what’s possible.
What makes your landscaping approach ecological or regenerative?
We focus on working with nature - not against it. That means using native and edible plants, building healthy soil, reducing inputs like irrigation and fertilizers, and creating spaces that support pollinators, wildlife, and people. Our goal is to design and install systems that improve over time, require less maintenance, and contribute to a more resilient local ecosystem. Our approach is heavily influenced by principles of permaculture and Traditional Ecological Knowledge.
