Landscaping Site Visit

This week we had a site visit with a landscaping company that specializes in ecologically sustainable gardens, conservation, restoration and native plant horticulture. My husband and I have been kicking around ideas for years, but have come to the conclusion that we need help implementing them! During the site visit we "walked the land" with two designers and talked about ideas, dreams, and goals. 


Site visit

Our lot is complicated - a triangular piece of land that is surrounded with green electrical boxes, buried cables, two power poles and their guy wires, and ground-level metal access plates to underground utilities. So far I haven't been able to locate any surveyor markers, but we do have an original blueprint of the property.

The site visit went well. I really appreciated hearing ideas from the designers as we looked at the property from all angles, noted its merits and tossed around ideas for its improvement. This is a busy time for landscaping companies, so we are on a wait-list. This gives us some time to complete a few assignments in preparation, and the usual end-of-winter clean up and oak patrol.
