Company Background

Founded in 2003 by Chris Johnson, C Johnson Landscape Design Group is an Edina-based landscape design and build firm dedicated to creating harmonious outdoor living spaces. Chris, a licensed contractor with an AAS in Landscape Design & Construction from Hennepin Technical College, combines technical expertise with a lifelong passion for the land, inspired by childhood memories on his grandparents' South Dakota farm. The company specializes in translating a homeowner's lifestyle, architectural style, and personal aesthetic into fully realized landscapes. From initial design consultations for patios and outdoor kitchens to expert construction of retaining walls and irrigation systems, the team provides consistent communication and professional project management. They believe deeply in the restorative power of nature and are committed to enhancing both property value and quality of life by thoughtfully connecting the home's interior with the beauty of the outdoors.

Question Answers

As an Edina homeowner, how do you address common issues like soil compaction and weeds in a new landscape design?

We tackle these local challenges from the start. For soil compaction, common in our area, we use specialized equipment to properly aerate and amend the soil before any planting or hardscaping, ensuring healthy root growth and drainage. In our designs, we incorporate strategic weed barriers, proper plant spacing, and low-maintenance, hardy plant selections that naturally outcompete weeds. For ongoing care, our landscape maintenance services include targeted, environmentally responsible treatments to manage weeds without harming your desirable plants.

What does your design and build process look like for a project like a new patio or outdoor kitchen?

Our process is collaborative and thorough. It begins with a detailed consultation where we listen to your goals, lifestyle, and how you envision using the space. We then develop a custom design that integrates with your home's architecture. Once the design is finalized, our licensed construction team handles everything—from patio installation and carpentry for an outdoor kitchen to irrigation and planting. We manage the entire project, providing regular updates so you're always informed, ensuring the final build matches the design vision perfectly.

Do you handle both the design and construction of structural elements like retaining walls?

Yes, we are a full-service design-build firm. As licensed contractors, we not only design retaining walls for aesthetics and function but also handle all the construction and installation. This includes proper engineering for drainage and soil retention, which is crucial for longevity and safety. Managing both design and construction allows us to ensure quality control, seamless project flow, and a single point of responsibility from the initial concept to the finished wall on your property.
