Landscape Guild

Who We Are

Landscape Guild was born from the visionary collaboration of Frank Contey, founder of Landmind, and Lisa Mierop, owner of Mierop Design. Recognizing a gap in the landscape care market for more specialized and personalized services, they joined forces to create a company that addressed the unique needs of discerning gardeners. Leveraging their combined expertise in design, construction, and plant knowledge, they assembled a team of Master Gardeners dedicated to providing exceptional horticultural care.

What We Do

Landscape Guild transcends the typical "mow, blow, go" approach to garden maintenance. Our team of Master Gardeners doesn't simply tidy up your property; we delve into the intricacies of your plantings, providing a level of care and attention that goes above and beyond. We understand that each garden is unique, with its own ecosystem and specific requirements.

Our services are designed to encompass all aspects of your landscape's well-being, from the annuals that burst forth with vibrant color to the majestic trees that provide shade and structure. We offer a comprehensive suite of services, including meticulous pruning techniques that enhance the shape and longevity of your plants, expert weed control and deadheading that ensure healthy growth, and creative container designs that bring visual interest to any space. Whether it's adding seasonal charm with dazzling holiday decorations or providing expert care for your precious bulbs, our team excels at exceeding your expectations.

We also specialize in maintaining the health and vitality of your plants through deep root feeding, fertilization programs tailored to each plant's needs, and vigilant insect and disease management. This proactive approach ensures your landscape flourishes year-round, free from the threat of common ailments. For those who value consistency and personalized attention, we offer a unique service model where each Master Gardener is assigned a selection of properties. This dedicated approach fosters a deep understanding of your garden's individual needs and allows for a more targeted and effective approach to care.

How It Works

At Landscape Guild, we believe in a personalized and flexible approach to landscape care. Your journey with us begins with an initial consultation during which we take the time to understand your vision, assess your landscape's unique characteristics, and discuss your specific needs and preferences. Based on this comprehensive evaluation, we develop a customized plan that outlines the services most suited to your property.

We offer flexible scheduling options, ranging from weekly and monthly visits to seasonal maintenance or 'as needed' service calls. There are no long-term contracts, giving you the freedom to adjust your service frequency as your needs evolve. Our fees are based on hourly rates plus the cost of materials, brush removal, and any additional services requested, such as tree surgery, pest control, or specialist fertilization programs.
