Landscape Materials

Recycled and repurposed landscape materials give new life to existing resources– reducing waste, conserving energy, and saving money. From construction remnants to salvaged hand-me-downs, these materials bring in unique textures, patinas, and stories that can’t be replicated, while reducing negative impacts.

Permeable surfaces are an essential element of a high-performing landscape, offering a number of benefits over conventional paved surfaces like concrete or asphalt.

Organic mulches are landscape workhorses– when used to cover bare ground, they act as a protective blanket that improves soil quality, conserves water, and supports habitat.

Hardscape materials play a crucial role in the high-performing landscape. These are non-living elements that provide structure, functionality, and style to your space. From permeable surfaces and locally-quarried stone to repurposed wood and rain collection barrels, hardscaping can provide ecological benefits that make them just as important to the high-performing landscape as plants and watering practices.

Compost is garden gold– when incorporated into soil or used as topdressing, it boosts soil fertility, improves soil structure, and promotes microbial activity. These improvements create an ideal growing environment, giving plants access to food and water that they need to thrive.
