Most pest problems aren’t “bug problems.”
They’re imbalance problems.

In permaculture, we don’t reach for sprays first.
We design smarter systems.

🌼 Marigolds & nasturtiums can distract aphids.
🌿 Lavender & chrysanthemums help repel unwanted insects.
🧅 Alliums naturally deter certain soil pests.
🌸 Diverse flowers invite beneficial predators like ladybugs and lacewings.

Even something as simple as hanging a pine cone in the garden:
• Can help you read moisture levels
• Provides insect habitat
• Protects seedlings
• Eventually feeds your soil

Nature already has built-in solutions.
Our job is to stack functions and work with them — not against them.

A healthy garden isn’t sterile.
It’s balanced.

If you want a yard that’s lower maintenance, more productive, and designed to work with nature instead of constantly fighting it — let’s talk. 🌱

Proof you only need six inches of soil to grow healthy food.

If you’re interested in a yard that’s lower-maintenance, more useful, and healthier over time, a permaculture consultation is the best place to start.

We’ll look at water flow, soil health, sun and shade, and talk through realistic options — whether that’s food, low-maintenance landscaping, or both.

Message me to set up a consult and see what’s possible for your space.

How Pricing Works

Permaculture looks different for every yard, so pricing is set up to stay flexible and approachable.

• On-site consultation: $95
Walk-through of your property to look at water flow, sun and shade, soil, and opportunities
(Can be a stand-alone service or applied toward install work)

• Design support: typically $250–$600, depending on size and scope
From small “start here” plans to more complete yard designs

• Installation:
$75–$95 per hour or flat-rate pricing for larger projects

Many people start small and build over time — the goal is long-term improvements that actually last.

Start Small Permaculture Package

This option is for people who like the idea of permaculture but want to start simple and practical.

Instead of a full-yard redesign, we focus on one or two high-impact areas, such as:
• Improving water flow or drainage
• Building healthier soil in a problem spot
• Adding a small food-producing area
• Reducing maintenance in part of the yard

It starts with an on-site walkthrough and a conversation about what makes sense right now.

You’ll get clear recommendations, simple next steps, and a plan that can grow over time if you want it to.

Permaculture doesn’t have to be all-or-nothing.
