There are many different advantages to choosing native plants for your landscaping — with the most important most likely being about the health of the environment and your yard. Native plants are used to the local soil, climate, and wildlife which means they need less water, less fertilizer, and less care than non-natives. That sustainability factor not only requires less gardening but has a smaller ecological footprint. Native plants attract local pollinators, birds and other wildlife by providing a supply of food and habitat, which translates into garden biodiversity. They also suffer less from local pests and diseases, which makes for healthier gardens and less need for chemicals. Using native plants in your landscape reflects an ecosystem that is both artistically appealing and built to thrive on its own, that will challenge the need for planet development.

At Fertile Ground Organic Gardens, our focus is on locally adapted plants, so we always recommend some combination of native and non-native plants. Local plants are naturally hardy and durable, it needs less water, there is less maintenance and they are a vital habitat for local wildlife. We use edible plants too, so get ready to snack on some salads and fruit from your own garden. In a consultation, we analyze certain conditions of your garden, including soil, sun exposure, and moisture, to make sure we recommend flowers and plants that flourish in your designated area. We can also advise how to plant based on the season so your garden never goes to waste. We want to create an environment that is as green as it is visually pleasing that can coincide with your lifestyle while also providing a great benefit for the planet.

Does Fertile Ground Organic Gardens fix drainage in your landscape? You bet! Great soil needs great drainage for the soil to be at the right consistency and for the water to prevent working against itself e.g ruining the soil with erosion or killing the plants roots. Our team will begin with a full evaluation of your property in search of drainage issues — low areas that tend to hold water, soils that aren’t draining well, and existing drainage systems that may not be doing their job. Our customized rain gardens, swales, or even French drains help to redirect excess water and improve drainage. We can also redesign existing landscaping to facilitate water retention and flow. We aim to design a well-balanced environment in your garden that will protect against the stagnation of water while allowing your plants to thrive.

Our team is going to ask some questions related to your lifestyle, your maintenance requirement and your budget to find out the way of living up to your expectations. Along with our thoughts about what to plant, we will suggest seasonally suitable sustainable plants and how best to design elements to fit your vision. Post consultation, we will offer you a complete proposal of the scope, timelines and cost so that you can make an informed decision.
