Creating delight and wildness!

 

Chemical-Free, Human-Powered Garden Design & Maintenance

“Kim is an artist with plants, unafraid to get her hands dirty. The flower beds she created for me are thriving because she knows what plants need and is tuned into the soil, to sun and shade, to the rhythm of the seasons, and the ways that colors work together. She also listens and understands what clients want and translates that into something beautiful and sustainable. If you prefer the sound of a shovel connecting to the dirt to that of a rototiller and appreciate a truly hands on approach to gardening, I highly recommend Where Earth Meets Sky.”

“We had the pleasure of working with Where Earth Meets Sky in the creation of a substantial garden at our home. Our chief goal was to replace the typical lawn with a space that would not only be beautiful but would also provide much needed habitat for pollinating insects in our area. We found Kim and her team to be a joy to work with. Her knowledge and experience gave us all the confidence we needed to achieve a lasting space that enhances our property and is admired by all our neighbors. ”

Helping wildlife and people thrive

A pollinator landscape is a wonderful thing to create, nurture, live with, and witness. The gardens come alive with the buzzing of bees, darting hummingbirds, fluttering butterflies, caterpillars and chrysalis, birdsong and many more truly unique and beautiful insects.

Quiet, thoughtful, natural care

I use hand tools and our bodies so there is minimal noise and disruption, plus no fumes or the burning of fossil fuels. I do not use chemicals, and I use compost and organic amendments in my garden beds and with new plantings to build rich soil.

Rewilding our spaces

Creating a garden in some cases also helps reclaim land and offset the loss of habitat from monoculture practices, planting and mowing of green lawns, parking lots, pavement and suburban sprawl.

What I love most is working with you to create the garden that is best for you and your landscape.

 
 
 
 

Hi, I’m Kim

I am a landscape designer and landscaper with over 15 years experience working in gardens in the Hilltowns, the Valley and the Berkshires of Western Mass. I am passionate about designing and maintaining gardens, especially pollinator gardens. More about me >

 
 

Beyond custom perennial garden design, we can also offer…

  • Seasonal cleanups, pruning, and brush clearing

  • Weeding, mulching, edging, and dead heading

  • Compost amendments

  • Dividing and moving perennial plants

  • Annual plantings in beds and containers

Supporting local business

I support local businesses as much as possible and purchase many of my perennial and annual pollinator and ornamental plants from local growers and nurseries like A Wing And A Prayer Nursery in Cummington, Bare Roots Farm in Chesterfield and Andrew’s Greenhouse in Amherst.
