Frequently Asked Questions
What types of sustainable garden designs do you offer for Wheaton homeowners?
We specialize in ecologically rich gardens tailored to our local environment, including rain gardens to manage stormwater, edible gardens (Gardens of Eat'n) with native plants for food and medicine, patios and walkways using natural materials, retaining walls, and designated natural play areas for children. Our designs focus on restoring suburban ecosystems with native plants that thrive in Wheaton's climate.
How do you address common landscaping issues like soil compaction and storm debris in Wheaton?
For Wheaton residents dealing with soil compaction from heavy rainfall or foot traffic, we use techniques like aeration and incorporate organic matter to improve soil health. For storm debris cleanup, we offer services to safely remove fallen branches and debris, often repurposing materials into mulch or natural features for your garden, helping restore your yard after weather events.
How does Luke Jessup's background influence your landscaping approach?
Luke's experience as a wilderness survival instructor and deep knowledge of native plants—gained from using them for edible, medicinal, and utilitarian purposes—directly shapes our work. This hands-on expertise ensures we select plants that are not only native to Maryland but also practical and sustainable, creating gardens that connect homeowners to the natural world while supporting local ecosystems.
