BEFORE AND AFTER

Kind Words from Clients

Slide Over

“I've been working with Anna for three years, and she has transformed my yard!  We started with several large (and completely empty) beds in our front yard, and I was worried it would take years for them to look full and mature.  Anna knew exactly which plants would thrive in that space, and within a year our beds were full of the most beautiful combination of native plants, shrubs, and flowers. Her team has taken meticulous care of our front and backyard for the last several years, and they know exactly how to prune things to ensure that they will regrow throughout the season.  Anna has also helped us to redesign one of our more mature beds, expanding it and helping to make sure that everything is getting the appropriate amount of water.  And most importantly, she is an absolute pleasure to work with!”

— Sloan

“Anna was very thorough in researching the plants for our landscape. We greatly appreciate her eye for details!"

— Julia

“Anna is a good listener. As a result, she has curated a selection of plants for my garden that are appropriate for my space, the climate and provide a beautiful visual not only for me but for those who pass by.”

— Andrea

“Anna and all the helping hands at In Joy bring to the garden what we hope more people will bring to our lives, care. For folks who spend time cultivating spaces for refuge, community, and growth, Anna and crew are good stewards of the green kind. Great hearts, insight, and sound ethics all direct these folks to work smart, from the roots out. I can't stop hiring them.”
