Garden Consultation with Garden Tonic

Duration: 1 hour & 15 minutes
Investment: $175*

Ready to bring your dream garden to life? This on-site consultation is the essential first step in designing a space that’s beautiful, functional, and perfectly tailored to your lifestyle.

Whether you're looking to grow your own food, attract pollinators, or simply create a space you love spending time in, we offer expert guidance with a personalized touch—helping you move forward with clarity and confidence.

What’s Included:

Expert Walkthrough

We’ll walk your space together, discuss your goals, and offer real-time advice on plant selection, layout, soil improvement, and long-term care—based on your needs and level of experience.

Site-Specific Assessment

We evaluate light, soil, existing plantings, and microclimates to understand what will thrive in your space.

Custom Garden Plan

After the visit, you’ll receive a beautifully organized digital plan tailored to your space, style, and conditions. Your plan includes:

  • Recommended Plants: A curated list of perennials, shrubs, and/or trees suited to your sun, soil, and maintenance preferences, with variety and spacing suggestions.

  • Planting Areas: A zone-by-zone layout of your garden with dimensions, sun exposure, and planting intentions (e.g. pollinator bed, screening hedge, kitchen garden).

  • Tailored Strategies: Specific guidance for transplanting, soil amendments, seasonal care, and long-term success—plus optional ideas like containers, annuals, or bloom boosters.

  • Visual Support: Labeled plant lists and inspirational photos to help you visualize your future space—whether it's vibrant and wild, modern and minimal, or soft and serene.

Your plan serves as a personalized roadmap—perfect for DIYers or for collaborating with professional installers.

Want Ongoing Support?

After the consultation, we offer the following add-on services:

  • Personal Plant Shopping & Sourcing
    We’ll coordinate your plant order and work directly with a trusted grower to source everything on your list. Once the order is finalized, you’ll pay the nursery directly—typically Flat Creek Plant Farm for most of our projects, with vegetables and annuals sourced from a separate nursery.

  • On-Site Plant Layout
    We can return to place your plants in the recommended layout, ready for you—or your landscaper—to install.

  • Planting Services
    Depending on your site and scope, we offer limited planting services. We do not offer full landscaping or major installation projects.

Additional Site Visits

If you'd like us to return for seasonal updates, reworking the plan, or to answer new questions in person, we offer 1-hour Garden Upkeep Guidance as a follow-up service. These visits are not included in the initial consultation fee.
