Ponds, Bogs, Creek Banks & Wet Meadows 

People often ask how to make a wet area less wet. We prefer to work with Mother Nature and not fight her. Many plants love "wet feet" and wet meadows and bog gardens can become a favorite habitat for the homeowner to cultivate. We also work with helping nature repair itself from flooding and hurricanes. Properly restored streambanks and flood plains can resist erosion and maintain that delicate balance between a little too much water and disaster.
