— Frequently asked

A few practical questions.

What does the site-visit fee actually buy?

Two hours on the property with a senior designer, a soil sample, basic sun mapping, and a one-page handwritten brief delivered within a week of the visit. If you proceed with any design tier, the $420 visit fee is credited back against the engagement total.

How far out are you booking site visits?

Typically three to five weeks. Spring and early summer fill first; if you can flex into August or early autumn we can usually be on-site within ten days.

Do you take projects outside Oregon, Washington, and Northern California?

We've taken occasional projects in Idaho, Montana, and Vancouver Island, but only if there's an existing client relationship. Outside our standard travel range we charge for travel days separately.

Will you work with a build team I already have?

Yes — we'll happily coordinate with a team you trust, provided they're comfortable with native-plant installs and our level of construction-document detail. If you need a build team, we can introduce you to two we've worked with for years in each region.

How long does a typical engagement take, start to finish?

Three to six months for a full residential design. Add another four to twelve weeks of construction depending on scope. A meadow restoration usually runs four to eight months on the design side and another two to three growing seasons before the meadow is established.

Is there a minimum project size?

For the full design tier, yes — we don't take new projects under $20,000. The Walking Plan ($1,200) is built for clients with smaller lots or partial scope.
