Lawn to Garden Conversion - How it Works

Step 1: 
Determine the amount of lawn you want to convert

The first step in converting any turf area will be to determine the amount of square footage.  Our team will come out to your property to assess the area.  This assessment will include taking a few simple measurements and gather sun exposure, soil conditions, and existing elements (trees, paving, structures)   From there we will be able to estimate the initial prep work needed prior to planting.

                                       HOW DO YOU GET RID OF THE LAWN?

There are a few options when it comes to prep.  Each project will decide the best way for you to take. When recommending we consider the following:

  • state of the current lawn

  • species of grass

  • existing tree roots

  • desired planting time 

Step 2:
Choose your garden style

Next step will be to choose the type of garden you'd like to install.  Below are a number of options to match to your unique property.  Our designers consider site conditions and will advise on which option suits your project best.  Your site assessment will highly influence which style makes the most sense.  With that said, there are ways to combine multiple styles for complex project sites
