Lisa Barbaro from grand plans was the first designer to respond to my request for information. We agreed in advance to a price for the design plan should I proceed work with her design. This was very fair. As a consultant myself, I actually suggested she charge a bit more for her service. I was impressed that she offered to visit my property so she could see firsthand the light, the soil, etc..Lisa was on time and prepared with a survey of my lot. She did not charge for this consultation, which I found to be a good first step. She spent a sufficient amount of time at my home, asking questions and gaining insight about me and my ideas and preferences. We agreed that she would provide me with a written plan for concept, a digital 2D plan and revision(s), plant lists, and care guidelines for phase one of my multi phase project. NEXT STEP- waiting for the schematic plan. Depending upon the anticipated cost vs my budget, I may proceed to implementing the project using Grand Plans or as a DYI. I'll review again once I have the plan

My flower gardens were overrun with mugwort. If you know anything about mugwort, it's nearly impossible to kill off. Other projects included improving curb appeal and dealing with constant runoff from the lawn. Last year a lovely stone wall was built. So this year we'll see how the mugwort is doing and build up my perennial gardens. We'll continue working on runoff issues. I know Melissa and her team will work as hard as they did last year.

Then he rescheduled for Sunday at 10am. Didn't show again. Text after 10am and said he was on his way but wouldn't be there for nearly 2 hours. I canceled the project with him and asked for my money back but he came up with the excuse that the money I zelled him had to go to his sisters account and then he would send it back. I sent the money over a week ago and nothing back since. Every day he says the money hasn't went from his sister's account to his business account!!

We just want to thank you for helping us achieve "less lawn, more life" on our property. When we…read moreembarked on this project to "re-wild", we did not know how to even start. Our first consultation with Dave gave us a lot to think about, but it also got us excited at the possibilities. Within a short period of time, Plan it Wild came out to our property and walked around with us, took notes, gave some ideas and came back to us with a proposal for us to consider. We started slowly with one of the four areas they drew up for us and in the Fall of 2024 they planted a "meadow" under a willow tree in our backyard. They gave us instructions on how to care for it so the beautiful array of bluestem, baptisia (wild indigo), goldenrod, swamp and butterfly milkweed among others could establish themselves. Throughout the fall, I had questions for them that they promptly answered. In the spring, with a few good days of weeding following some rain, just about everything emerged (and they replaced others that did not). The spring, summer and fall had amazing blooms, and I understand even in winter, I will have some things to enjoy! The project was so successful that we asked Plan it Wild to come back the following fall, and again, they gave us ideas that led us to install new beds in the front of our house, in addition to a rocky area. The team was amazingly efficient and put together another beautiful cornucopia of native plantings. We can't wait to see what next spring brings (besides some weeding)! This type of result cannot just come from any landscaping company. We highly recommend that if you want to have knowledgeable, realistic, efficient help to make your property more welcoming to wildlife and bring color and beauty to your home, look no further than contacting Plan it Wild.

They helped us choose perennials that would attract pollinators. The plants all are flowering beautifully and sequentially as the summer moves along. Plan it Wild also gave us detailed advice on how to plan and care for our new plants. While they do require watering 2x/day for the first growing season, they should "take" by next spring so that won't be necessary. We also decided to stop cutting the lawn except for a path, creating a meadow effect. No more landscaper to pay. Plan it Wild showed us how to mulch the leaves and we will use this product in the plant beds this fall. This form of gardening has taken hold on the West Coast and in other areas of the country that gets sparse rainfall. It feels great to create our own little native plant sanctuary. We're seeing many more birds and other wildlife. Having a perfect green lawn is deeply ingrained in our culture but for us, it's time to embrace nature. We feel so much better about the size of our carbon footprint! Plan it Wild is not cheap, but it was one third the cost of other zeroscaping firms out there. They were very patient and provide excellent follow up when we have questions. Highly recommend Plan it Wild!!!!
