This landscape renovation went from all grass into a comfortable back garden entertaining space by reducing the lawn over 30%. We were able to enlarge the patio by extending the slate and making a seating wall to add more room for guests during gatherings. The recirculating fountain adds sound and is inviting for wildlife. New steps lead to an upper level that is now filled with fruit trees and colorful ornamental plants along with a potting and compost area and raised vegetable bed.
