My Ground Landscapes

My Ground began in 1994 amidst a charming small town environment that encouraged a lot of diversification of projects. This was partly because landscaping is an art business and partly because a small town provides only so much work in any one aspect. My background has always been in design. When I was perhaps 6 or 7 years old I saw a plant brochure of a protected grassy area surrounded by a variety of trees, evergreen shrubs, and flowers. I have been building environments ever since. Secret gardens, sneaky bits of remembrance, energy collectors, restorative sanctuary, dynamic entertaining spaces… My educational pursuits led me through architecture, engineering, art, dance, theater, music, and martial arts. It all winds up in my designs as subtle understandings about how we relate to our environments, how things relate to each other, and how each piece wants to find its place. I look and feel for energy. I hunt down what I call "being places". I shake the box with all the project design pieces until they harmonize in a beautifully orchestrated whole. If they don't quite go together, I keep shaking. It's the basis of what I have termed the "Seed Crystal Design Method". Fast forward to today, and My Ground is at the forefront of outdoor space creation. Whether it is envisioning, building, or coordinating, we are your partners in turning ideas into realities.
