How a yard becomes a drawing
From a muddy lawn to a drawing set.
Every package runs on the same spine. The Sketch stops at step 03; the full plans and the 3D renders carry on to the handover.
Send the lot
Photos, a survey or a satellite screenshot, and your honest wishlist. A 15-minute call covers how you actually use the yard — dog, grill, kids, hammock.
Day 1Read the dirt
Sun hours, slope, where the water runs after a storm, what the soil does in July. We log deer paths and whatever is already thriving.
Days 2–4Cast the plants
A native palette sized to your site: grasses for movement, shrubs for structure, perennials for something in bloom from April through November.
Sketch lands in about 8 business daysDraw and render
Scaled layout, plant counts and — on the 3D package — renderings of your own house in June light and October light.
Full plans in 2–3 weeksHand it over
A PDF set your installer can price, a planting list with sizes, and sourcing notes for native nurseries. Plant it yourself over a weekend or pass it to a crew.

Why the plan survives contact with soil
Pretty on paper. Alive in the ground.
Native, not native-ish
Every plant on the list evolved in the Northeast. Little bluestem, swamp milkweed, serviceberry — the ones local bees, birds and caterpillars already know how to use.
Deer-aware on paper
We know what Chappaqua deer snack on and what they skip. Aromatic, bitter-leaved natives go on the outer edge; the tasty ones get a sheltered spot.
See it in 3D before anyone digs
Renderings use your house, your sun angle and a June and an October version of the same bed. Change your mind on screen, not after the delivery truck.
Plans any installer can price
Scaled sheet, plant counts, spacing. Hand it to one crew or three.
Home turf
