Your gardening goals are simple: To sit and drink your coffee (or tea, or wine…) in the midst of flowers, birds and butterflies. Maybe host a garden party, or set up a cafe table under a canopy of jasmine for tete-a-tetes with your closest friends. Gardens can feed the body, but they can also feed the soul.
CUT FLOWER GARDEN DESIGN, INSTALLATION & COACHING
what kind of garden are you dreaming of?
A garden for gathering, with outdoor entertaining in mind…
A cutting garden for flower arrangements (perfect for the home, great for gifts!)…
A sensory garden with textures and colors children will love…
A pollinator garden attracting birds, butterflies and honeybees…
A fragrance garden with flowers chosen for scent throughout the growing season…
An edible flower and herb garden that is as beautiful as it is functional…
Or any combination of the above.
more than just flowers, it's outdoor living
Your garden will be designed with outdoor living space so you can go out and enjoy it! I’ll help you plan pathways, archways and seating areas to create wonder, promote rest, and make gathering a breeze. Tell me the lifestyle you would love to have in your yard, and I will draw up a design you can implement yourself, or have my team install for you.
A 60-minute in person consult (with a 30-minute follow-up call) where we’ll talk about your goals for your garden and draw up a design plan you can implement yourself (DIY!), or have my team install for you. As we brainstorm, I will ask you questions like:
- What does your dream garden look like? (I love a good Pinterest board!)
- Who will be enjoying your garden? Kids, dogs, cats, adults, wild birds & butterflies?
- What are your larger goals around health, wellness and enjoyment?
- What flowers do you love? Do you have floral hobbies you’d like to frow for?
Then we’ll determine a location and design that best fits your needs and goals, taking into account:
- Your home’s architecture
- Location & sun exposure
- Water source/irrigation
- Accessibility
Together, we’ll design a space that reflects your taste and lifestyle goals, and get you started with clear instructions on how to grow your own beautiful flower garden.
You’ll receive
- a professional conceptual drawing of your edible garden
- A plant guide and planting plan for your new garden up to 64 square feet of planting space.
- Growing a Healthy Garden Guide.
- Estimates for turnkey installation or DIY kits
And if you need clarification, some troubleshooting, or have a question — a 30-minute follow-up call is included!

My husband and I have had a small garden for the last five years. We had a challenging season in 2018, and opted out of growing one in 2019. Katie motivated me to try again this year. With her education and guidance, our garden has prospered. Katie’s perspective on educating others to grow their own food, along with supporting local farmers, is inspiring! Thanks to her suggestions on everything from growing methods to protecting your plants from wildlife, Now I’m experiencing the joy of watching plants that we’ve never planted before blossom into food; Katie has brought back the joy of gardening for me!

DO YOU ONLY INSTALL RAISED BEDS?
While I can advise you on what to plant in-ground, my specialty is in raised bed gardening. Raised beds are so much easier to maintain, you have control over the soil so plants grow better, and these beds are absolutely beautiful. We can make them out of Corten steel (perfect for modern architecture) or cedar (ideal for more traditional landscapes, long-lasting and a natural insect repellent).
WHAT KIND OF FLOWERS CAN WE PLANT?
I recommend annuals for raised beds because they give you maximum flexibility with minimal maintenance. Together, we’ll determine the perfect blend of flowers to give you WOW factor. Flowers I love: Zinnias, dahlias, cosmos, calendula, nasturtium, and silver dollar eucalyptus.
WHAT IS THE PRICE RANGE FOR TURNKEY INSTALLATION?
While material costs are always subject to change, many of the projects we do are small to medium sized gardens for between $5,000-$20,000.
