They are meticulously organized and have an eye for the small details that make all the difference! Communication is equally important and their strengths here and willingness to go the extra mile prove their dedication to an awesome client experience! Quality is apparent in everything they do and I highly recommend you get in touch! **Comment from Tabor Group Landscape:** > Thank you for the great review, Drew! We enjoy working with you as well. **★★★★★ — Kris and Blake Nelson, Jan. 2018** > The original front yard landscaping was still in place from 1997 and it was time for an update. From start to finish, Jeff listened to what we wanted, as well as providing wonderful ideas for shrubs and plants. We also had a maple tree that really had taken over the front yard and blocked much of the view of the front of the house. Tabor suggested that while they usually like to preserve trees as much as possible, this one was beginning to cause problems with its extensive root system. The tree was removed very carefully and replaced with a beautiful berm full of perennials, as well as a flowering crab that added needed height and dimension. Our cement sidewalk and front step was expanded and updated with beautiful pavers. Tabor provides such wonderful customer service and follow up and is always willing to work with you to answer questions or make any necessary tweaks. We've used them for two projects now and cannot recommend them more. **Comment from Tabor Group Landscape:** > Kris and Blake - what a wonderful review of our work to receive at the start of the new year! Thank you kindly for your words. We enjoy working with you two and your lovely home. All our best and let us know if there is anything else you might need! Thanks again. **★★★★★ — Margaret Murphy, Dec. 2017** > Jeff and his team were great to partner with - very easy to work with, brought their expertise to the planning and delivery, accountable, and were always prepared for meetings and site visits. We love our end product which was a multi-year, phased backyard project. We would highly recommend Tabor for their experience, service, and overall end product. Our yard is the perfect oasis we dreamed of. **Comment from Tabor Group Landscape:** > Thank you Margaret! We are thrilled you love your backyard space just as much as we do. Happy New Year to your family. **★★★★★ — Linda Sjolander, Feb. 2017** > Once our Lower Level renovation was complete, which included an egress window in the front of our home, we needed a new integrated landscape to minimize the new window and refresh the exterior of our home. We contacted Jeff Gaffney of the Tabor Group who designed a beautiful new landscape plan for our entire property. We discussed the issues we had with ground and surface water that continually flowed into our basement sump pump. His plan integrated our downspouts into a drain tile system that directed the water away from our home and also included regrading around the house. It has made a world of difference to our peace of mind and safety of our home. He also coordinated the modification to our irrigation system and then the re-sodding of our front yard that was damaged due to the house construction project. As for the process of the project -- with input from us on our favorite shrubs and flowers, Jeff brought his creative talents to create a design that minimized that egress window and delights us year round with our yard's beauty. Tabor Group was very responsive with any tweaks that we needed done and completed the work promptly. Our project is almost 6 years old and it has matured well and is not difficult to maintain. We heartily endorse Tabor Group Landscape and it's staff! **Comment from Tabor Group Landscape:** > Linda - thank you, thank you! What a wonderful review and careful attention to all that Tabor Group did for your landscaping needs. We so enjoyed working with you back then and look forward to when we can help again! All our best! **★★★★★ — Barb Hegenes, Jan. 2017** > Jeff was always prompt and stayed on his timeline for the project. He was upfront about cost and stayed on budget. His team was amazing and professional. The quality of his work just shines through each season! So grateful I was referred to him!!! **Comment from Tabor Group Landscape:** > Barb - thank you so very much for your kind words. We are truly blessed to have great clients like you! So glad you are enjoying your outdoor space. **★★★★★ — Richard and Susan Proman, Jan. 2017** > Tabor was highly recommended to us. We called and were responded to immediately. Our landscape was tired and needed updating. Jeff submitted a professional plan that was refreshing and beautiful. Delivery and installation was on time and "over the top" professional. Follow up was great. Could nor have had a better experience. **Comment from Tabor Group Landscape:** > Richard and Susan - thank you! Tabor Group so enjoyed working with you and on the project! All our best! TGL **★★★★★ — Maria Malooly, Jan. 2017** > Appreciated the professional approach and responses towards the Committee's/Board's requests and suggestions. Impressed with prompt responses and accessibility. > Interviewed several landscape designers----Jeff grasped our vision quickly and more accurately at the outset. > Beautiful results. Many positive comments from the homeowners. > Looking forward to future projects. **Comment from Tabor Group Landscape:** > Thank you Maria for your nice review. We are so glad you as the President of the Manor Homes of Edina Association and the other homeowners are pleased. We too are looking forward to working with you again. **★★★★★ — User, Aug. 2015** > I've had the opportunity to photograph numerous projects for Tabor Landscape. Jeff Gaffney is nothing short of a genius and visionary. I've shot many projects where my first impression was, "How did he come up with that?" He seems to be able to pull a remarkable vision of a project out of his hat. Although some elements of his designs are seen in multiple projects because they work so well, most of his work appears to be uniquely crafted for each project. **★★★★★ — marthamae5, Aug. 2015** > We have worked with Tabor Group Landscape for a few years and have always been very pleased with their work. They are great to work with: responsive, knowledgeable, and resourceful. They re-landscaped our front yard, with a stone patio, landscaping, sod, irrigation system, etc. We have had so many compliments on our front yard! Neighbors we have never met, approach us to tell us how beautiful it is - we will work with Tabor again! **★★★★★ — Paul Towne, Aug. 2015** > Tabor Group did landscaping as an element of an overall outdoor project by MA Peterson design build. Their design was exactly what we were looking for. They completed the project on time and right on budget. Their follow-up to ensure we were completely satisfied was greatly appreciated. Working with them was seamless and an absolute pleasure. I would definitely go back to Tabor for any additional work. ## Selected projects - [Landscapes \| Hardscapes \| Xeriscapes](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/landscapes-hardscapes-xeriscapes-pj-vj~1229923) - Location: Excelsior, MN - Photos: 81 - Description: Various landscaping, hardscaping and xeriscaping projects we've completed for our homeowners.

Any idea if this is all-weather furniture, or if it's been treated somehow to help keep it water resistant? A: jstockwell, Thanks for your interest! Unfortunately, we did not provide the outdoor furniture. The designer for this project was Michelle Fries of BeDe Design. The link to her Houzz page is below for you. Good luck! http://www.houzz.com/pro/bededesign/michelle-fries-bede-design-llc **Q: Posts for lights** *(in Photo Questions)* We are updating our patio with a similar mid century look and want to string lights above our eating and relaxing areas here in the Twin Cities. Where did you get the posts and how deep did you dig the footings? Thanks! A: Hi Allison - the post’s came from Home Depot and we set them 2 feet deep in a concrete footing let me know if you need anything else or if Tabor Group Landscape can assist - we're here TOO in the the Twin Cities! :) **Q: What do you think of the new look for our job site signs?** *(in Post to Followers)* What do you think of the new look for our job site signs? A: Looks great! --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-31.*
