Carmel Landscaping for Native Gardens & Edible Landscapes | Native Coast

In Carmel's climate, these issues often stem from inefficient irrigation and non-native plantings. We address them by first assessing your soil and microclimate. Our solutions typically involve designing a more targeted, water-efficient irrigation system and recommending a transition to drought-tolerant native plants or edible gardens that are naturally more resilient and require less water, which in turn reduces weed competition and creates a healthier, more sustainable landscape.

Our edible garden service is comprehensive. We work with you to design a layout that fits your space and culinary interests, from raised beds for vegetables to integrating fruit trees into your landscape. We handle the planting of your orchard or garden, establish an appropriate irrigation schedule, and provide guidance on ongoing maintenance to ensure a bountiful harvest. It's about creating a beautiful, functional space that provides fresh food for your table.

Yes, absolutely. Our founder has extensive experience designing and maintaining green roofs throughout California. For Carmel homeowners, a green roof can provide excellent insulation, manage stormwater runoff, and extend the lifespan of your roof membrane, all while creating a unique habitat or garden space. We assess your home's structure to ensure it can support the load and design a system using plants suited to our local coastal conditions.
