Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which consultation service is right for me?

If you aren't sure which service is right for you, reach out to our office over the phone at (415) 468 1961 or via email at sales@greenleemeadows.com with details about your project needs. We'll walk you through the next steps for your project and help you find the best solution for your garden.

Do you provide landscape architecture services?

While our design experts are not themselves landscape architects, we regularly work with distinguished landscape architects and can bring them into any project from our network of world class professionals.

Where are your consulting services available?

Our studio is located on the west coast of the United States, specializing in gardens in mediterranean climates. We have completed notable projects across the world from Spain to Argentina. We offer both remote and on-site consulting for both local and international projects, so don't hesitate to reach out if you aren't in our area!

Do you offer remote consultations?

We recommend conducting at least one site visit to gather crucial location details and understand the project's soil content, disturbance ecology, and other important context. However, we also provide remote consultations for a cost-effective way to address your basic questions.

How much does consulting cost?

Making a garden should be fun, and the quickest way to have it not be fun is unrealistic expectations regarding budget. We operate on an hourly rate and can help you decide on a budget that makes sense for your project needs during preliminary advising appointments.
