Busy Bees

Busy Bees specializes in custom perennial/native garden design and ongoing care for homeowners who want more than basic landscaping.

Busy Bees was founded on a simple belief: gardens are meant to be lived in,
loved, and tended with intention. With over 10 years of experience, I work with color, structure, texture and layered plantings to create GARDENS AS LIVING ART; gardens that feel intentional, expressive, and deeply connected to their setting.

Whether your beds need a thoughtful spring cleanup, a full garden refresh, or a complete redesign, I approach each project with a designer’s eye and a gardener’s dedication. My focus is on building strong plant compositions that mature beautifully and feel grounded, balanced, and alive throughout the seasons.

Services include:

*Custom Perennial Garden Design
*Virtual & On-Site Consultations
*Curated Plant Planning
*Garden Clean Outs
*Hazard Removal
*Installation & Nursery Curation
*Restoration & Renovation
*Plant Mapping
*Ongoing Maintenance
*Estate Management & Stewardship
*Seasonal Arrangements
* & More!

Busy Bees is rooted in dedication. I believe gardens should feel curated but natural, structured but full of movement and life. No power tools. No harsh chemicals. Just "elbow-deep' passion for beautifying our community and the joy of growing gorgeous gardens with my family of clients.

Spring scheduling is now open!
