Ecological Design
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you are sipping a hot beverage on a cold winter day gazing out your window dreaming of what your outdoor space could be! Maybe you are cracking open a cool drink on a warm summer’s eve with the sounds of insects filling the night air. Or maybe you caught a glimpse of a red fox on the woodland edge near your home and it has inspired you to fill your yard with plants that will bloom, attract birds, harbor wild native insects, and more. Whatever the inspiration let’s DREAM TOGETHER, BUILD and, GROW!
