What we do
Native garden installations
Lutsen, MN
We offer full garden installation services from start to finish. We specialize in turning urban lawn landscapes into native perennial pollinator gardens. Ideally, these projects are planned 6-12 months in advance of installation.
Transform your outdoor space.
Add depth and color to your landscape. Tall plants can provide visual screens while grasses or lower-lying species can define edges to make your garden complete. We can help you select plants to enhance and manage wet or dry areas of your yard, creating a space that’s optimized for function and aesthetic.
DIY assisted installations
The Golden Valley Airbnb “City Cabin” Project
Create a landscape you’ll feel proud of. DIY assisted installs are a great option if you want to learn as you go, stay involved in the process, and bring native plants into your yard in a hands-on way. And save on the budget. We provide the planning, plant selection, layout, and on-site guidance while you (and your family or friends) help with the installation. These projects are ideally planned 2–6 months in advance of installation.
Get your hands dirty.
We can take care of the heavy lifting like the tilling, compost, and walk you through site prep so you can focus on the parts that work for you!
Maintenance
Before spring cleanup
We offer native garden maintenance services for our existing installation customers to help keep gardens looking great and functioning well year after year. Maintenance visits focus on seasonal cleanup, plant health, and overall garden performance, and are typically scheduled in spring.
Keep your garden thriving.
Our goal is to keep each garden healthy, polished, and performing at its best—so homeowners and community members stay happy with the space, and confident in their choice to plant native.

Bring your native landscape plan to life.
From site preparation and plant sourcing to layout and installation, we provide the on-the-ground expertise and crew needed to execute larger native planting projects. We understand the unique considerations of working with native plants and can collaborate with landscape architects, contractors, and project teams to help create beautiful, resilient landscapes that support pollinators, wildlife, and the communities they serve.

“We have taken this direction to create relatively maintenance-free, environmentally responsible gardens that ring true to our Benedictine values of respect, stewardship, and hospitality. By incorporating native plants, we can create a sustainable solution that not only reduces maintenance and water requirements but also enhances the beauty of our campus and provides a welcoming habitat for our pollinators, along with a visually welcoming space for our students and future families.”
- Judi Morwood, coordinator for The College of St. Scholastica School of Arts and Sciences and a member of the Garden Committee
