That information may lead to a site assessment, a planting plan, native plant supply or help carrying out the work. The scope is discussed after the team understands the property.

Site Assessments

A site assessment gives the planting plan a useful starting point. Red Earth looks at the location, exposure, moisture, existing vegetation, approximate size and the goals for the space before discussing what may fit.

Some enquiries can begin with photos and a conversation, while other properties may need a closer look. A submitted form does not guarantee that a site visit will be offered.

Planting Plans

Becky has years of experience assessing sites and drawing planting plans by hand. A plan can organize the space, show where plants may go and give the project a clearer direction before work begins.

The exact plan and level of detail depend on the project.

Native Planting

Native planting can be used in home landscapes, pollinator areas, shorelines, community sites and other properties where the goal is to work more closely with PEI's plant communities.

Red Earth can discuss plants as part of a wider project or supply plants through the nursery. Selection depends on the site and current availability.

Supporting Work

Depending on the project, supporting work may include invasive plant control, trail or path work and incidental stone placement. These are considered within the needs of the property rather than offered as stand-alone construction or hardscaping services.

What to Include in Your Enquiry

The most useful enquiries include the property's location, approximate size, sun and moisture conditions, current vegetation, timing and what you want to change. Photos help too.
