Which areas do you serve?
We are based in Durham, NC and work with homes in Durham and nearby communities. If you are not sure whether you are in our area, just ask.
How do quotes work?
Send us a few details through the contact form or give us a call. For most projects we will visit to see the space, then send you a clear written quote before any work starts.
Do you offer one-time jobs?
Yes. Many clients start with a one-time cleanup or planting project. You can add regular maintenance later if you like.
Do I need to be home during visits?
Not usually. As long as we can reach the garden, we can do the work and let you know when we are done.
What happens to green waste?
We clear away clippings, leaves and debris from every job, unless you would like us to leave material for your own compost.
