This small front yard was transformed into a beautiful habitat garden. Ecological Concerns Incorporated removed the front lawn and replaced it with natural habitat space and native plants grown form our very own native plant nursery. Most of the seeds were collected from local watersheds. Permeable hardscape such as decomposed granite, as well as a rain garden and a rainwater catchment system were installed to aid in water conservation.
