“When the various workers have come to install or steward, they have done an amazing job and have been helpful.”
“The Red Stem team does fantastic work.”
The Red Stem team does fantastic work! The team designed, installed and are continuing to maintain our native landscape for our Lakeview home (small front yard and parkway). The team took special care in listening to what we wanted and what we did not want in our landscape (e.g., no plants that are toxic to dogs). They carefully picked the right plants, bushes and tree. The installation team was efficient and professional. The monthly maintenance checks have provided peace of mind in that the plants, bushes and tree are continuing to mature as they should (great security for our investment). We are now working with Red Stem to design, install and maintain a pet-friendly landscape for our back yard. We are very pleased with Red Stem ... We're confident that anyone considering landscape work will be as well.

“We are so thrilled to have found and worked with Red Stem.”
We are so thrilled to have found and worked with Red Stem. They are down to earth (no pun intended), well organized, responsive, and really attentive to our family's needs. Our first project with them involved the design and installation of a rain garden, and since then have done yearly updates to the rest of our landscape. We have lovely butterflies, more birds, more bees, and a gorgeous native backyard that gets rave reviews from our neighbors and visiting family members. During the winter holidays Red Stem even decorates our porch and front door with lovely garlands and a wreath. We are so happy for their effort in keeping our property sustainable and thriving.

“I have worked with Red Stem for a few years now.”
I have worked with Red Stem for a few years now. Initially I had a design plan made for both my front and backyard. The plans were what I asked for with a great attention to detail. They take their time and care to do it well. My first installation, two fall seasons ago, has done great. Monica came out to consult before, during and after installation. When the various workers have come to install or steward, they have done an amazing job and have been helpful. Throughout the process, Monica has also patiently answered all my questions and I have learned so much about native gardening. She really has a heart for native landscape and wants you and your garden to succeed. You can trust that the design and finished product will be beautiful. Red Stem has been very attentive to all my needs, are friendly, and have a passion for what they do. I am so satisfied with the work they do so I had another installation this past fall. Looking forward to seeing new and exciting things happening in my garden. I highly recommend this women-owned company that cares about making the earth a better place than we found it in! You won't be disappointed. What are you waiting for?

Monica and the crew at Red Stem have done an excellent, passionate job designing and implementing a native plants installation for my yard that is both beautiful and a delightful play space for my dog and I. It has been a genuine pleasure to see it bloom and grow over the last few years. They are artists in their craft, and have been a pleasure to work with.
