A Northwest Bayside Retreat: Retaining Walls & Paver Patio

A Project of Firsts
We wrapped up this landscaping project in the nick of time. On the very day we closed for our holiday break, we completed our final tasks on this landscape designed by Landscape Designer and CPH, Megan Pulkkinen. We defined the edges between the beds and gravel...
A Modern Northwest Cottage Garden

Working in times of COVID-19

A message from Colby regarding COVID-19
I hope all of you are doing well right now despite these very strange times. It’s easy to get lost in the panic and fear – both warranted emotions. Some of you are concerned about pre-existing conditions that may not interact well with this virus, in the still - at...
2009 – 2019 Celebrating 10 Years in Business!
The end of this decade marks the end of our first decade in business. That’s right. 10 WHOLE YEARS in business. As the saying goes, time flies. I can still remember the rush I’d get from early successes, like landing our first apartment complex to maintain (the...

Our story in the Kitsap Sun
Every person, every place, every business has a story. We haven't yet shared our story in writing, in part because it's still unfolding. As we approach the ten-year mark of our doors being open for business, it's time for us to look back, look inward, and do the work...

Our Backyard Refuge
Colby and I have been living in our home together since fall of 2010, about a year before we got married. It’s almost embarrassing to admit that we - two people who own a landscaping company - just finished landscaping around our home last month. I use the word...
Community Service Day
This was our second time volunteering our time and labor at Chico Salmon Park in Bremerton. Just like last year, we had a great time! An added bonus was being fed homemade cookies made by one of the park's regular volunteers. We constructed a small split rail fence,...
