“As a general contractor, we have had the pleasure of working with Molly on two jobs to date, and have been consistently impressed. Molly has a deep understanding of sustainable design, native plants, and designs projects that are practical to build. She also has a great aesthetic and is a fantastic communicator. Highly recommended!”

“Green Spot designed our back yard last summer and the finished product was amazing. Eric was wonderful to work with and was prompt with all of his appointments and drawings. I would recommend them to anyone!”

“We have worked with Mary for a while now and she does great work. She is very customer orientated, she shows up on time and stays until the job is done. It's not very often you find designers willing to get their hands dirty, but I continuously see Mary working in the dirt oftentimes weeding gardens that weren't part of the job. We know that whenever she calls us the job is going to be organized, well run and with happy customers. We recommend her highly.”

“We had seen several examples of Larry Myers' work and knew that his clients were thrilled with the results, so we hired Alfresco Living Design to design and landscape our city property to provide privacy while at the same time making it an airy and beautiful space. He succeeded brilliantly. He makes it all work for several important reasons that earn him a five star rating: 1. He has an outstanding sense of design, offering truly unique concepts that are refreshing and tasteful. 2. He knows what trees and plants to use not just for how they will look but also how they will react to site specific weather and soil conditions. 3. He worked with us to really understand what was wanted and then to our delight exceeded our expectations. 4. He respects a budget (you can always do more, spend more) finding innovative ways to get the best results for the buck. 5. He is a great listener and a thoughtful, considerate and humble person who doesn't let his prodigious talent turn into ego. And a bonus; if needed, he can design and fabricate supporting structures in wood, concrete or other material as part of the design process as he did for us. Larry Myers and Alfresco Living Design well deserve a five star rating.”

“Merle and Katherine are a phenomenal team with innovative and creative ideas. What I value, which is so clearly seen in their portfolio, is there good taste and judgement. I have recommended them to a number of friends and have heard nothing but praise and gratitude. No hesitation in recommending them!”

“My husband and I hired Max Illman to design the hardscape and softscape for our new home. We found Max to be smart, knowledgeable, and very responsive to our schedule, budget, and landscape desires (including the need for drainage mitigation). His ultimate design for a modern, low-maintenance landscape was both creative and practical; and we couldn't be happier with his plant recommendations. I highly recommend Max Illman Landscape Design.”

“We recently contracted Emily and her team do an extensive clean up of our 5 unit character home's garden. We were so impressed by the teams professionalism and knowledge. Emily spares no detail in her quotes and the work completed was second to none. We have since requested several more quotes for various planting and design jobs from Emily after the amazing work completed. All of which we will be moving forward with. I previously worked in the business for years and know good work when I see it. Thanks again Emily and team, looking forward to the next phase of our landscape project!!”

“Geoscapes exceeded all of my expectations by a long shot! Not only was communication responsive and timely but also professional and clear. Wendy is truly a genius at design, execution, and detail. She has the artistic sensibilities combined with feet on the ground know-how. She and her team are incredibly hard working, ethical, easy to get along with, and so knowledgeable about all aspects of landscape design. In addition, the work was done on the timeline communicated. So many contractors come and go without letting you know what’s what. I give them the highest praise possible. Hands down the best. I am beyond satisfied and grateful!”
