“Earth Designs arrived at our home and within two days transformed a weed infested ugly bank into an attractive easy to care for stone garden complete with ferns and grasses to soften the look. The staff was hardworking, efficient, and took care with other features of our property. If we have another project we need completed, we would not hesitate to hire them again. We continue to appreciate and enjoy the tremendous improvement in our yard!”

“Aja and the Earth Designs team are professionals of the highest caliber. They are not only skilled designers and installers with extensive expertise, they are also great collaborators and communicators. Aja transforms disrupted land into beautiful, restored natural landscapes. Aja is a true pleasure and I recommend her without reservation.”

“This isn’t about planting gardens, it’s about creating outdoor spaces. The Earth Design team took the aesthetic of our indoors, and brought it outdoors. The result? We now have elegant, inviting spaces throughout our property that have essentially become different “rooms” that we use throughout different parts of the day and through different seasons.”

“I can’t say enough about Earth Designs. From their thoughtful and sensitive design that enhances the natural landscape rather than overpowering it, to the fantastic team of landscapers, I couldn’t recommend Earth Design more. And the fact that they are a worker-owned cooperative makes it all the more rewarding and meaningful to work with them!”

From design to maintenance, they’ve created a serene, lush environment that blends in beautifully with the natural surroundings and compliments our home perfectly. It’s always a pleasure working them.”
