Services
Advanced Organic Lawn Care
Our comprehensive organic lawn program eliminates synthetic chemicals through core aeration, compost tea applications, and natural pest control. We use beneficial nematodes for insect management and corn gluten meal as organic pre-emergent treatment. The service includes seasonal cleanups, power edging, and smart watering guidance to maintain healthy turf while protecting local waterways.
Best Yard Drainage Solutions
We address water issues using natural methods first, creating rain gardens that manage stormwater while enhancing curb appeal. When needed, we install underground drainage systems with proper grading and piping. Our approach combines ecological principles with engineering solutions to prevent water damage and improve yard usability in Chicago's variable soil conditions.
Yard Makeovers
Our custom designs integrate native plants and sustainable materials to create functional outdoor living spaces. Services include patios, walkways, and retaining walls using eco-friendly materials. We offer phased installation options and detailed contracts with material specifications, focusing on pollinator habitats and low-maintenance landscapes that increase property value.
Vegetable Gardening
We create productive vegetable gardens using premium soil blends with biochar and compost. Our designs optimize sun exposure and crop rotation while incorporating efficient irrigation systems. The service includes seasonal planting guidance, soil testing, and organic pest management tailored to Chicago's growing seasons and climate patterns.
Rain Gardens
Our rain gardens transform problem areas into beautiful landscapes that manage stormwater naturally. Using native plants and proper soil preparation, these gardens reduce runoff while creating wildlife habitats. We design them to handle specific drainage challenges while meeting local municipality requirements for water management in suburban Chicago.
