Worked with Jake and his crew to remove the turf from my drive strips and a large area on the side of my yard, install native grasses and drought-tolerant perennials, remove lilac bushes from the front of the house, create crushed gravel paths and patio area--absolutely love the result! Tons of compliments from neighbors and passers-by! Jake was exceptionally professional and knowledgeable and he and his crew worked fast and left absolutely no mess behind. Hoping we can work together again to remove most of the rest of my front yard to create pollinator garden and rid myself of dependence on turf that requires watering. Highly recommend!
