Native & pollinator planting design for Vermont yards. Beautiful, easy to care for, and buzzing with life.
Get Your Yard Started →What I Do
I help Burlington-area homeowners create yards full of native plants and pollinators. Beautiful spaces that are easy to care for and alive with bees, butterflies, and birds.
As an Environmental Science student with a passion for Vermont's local ecology, I design custom planting plans that tell you exactly what to plant and where, using native and pollinator-friendly species suited to our climate. You get expert, ecological design without the cost of a full-service landscaping crew. Perfect for anyone who wants a thriving, low-maintenance yard they'll love for years.
Services
For advice, no drawing. A one-hour visit to assess your yard's sun, soil, and style, plus a follow-up plant list tailored to your space.
For one garden area. A custom drawn layout for a single bed or border, showing exactly what to plant and where, with a full plant list, spacing, and a local sourcing guide.
For your whole property. Everything in the Planting Plan, but for every area of your yard, tied together into one cohesive design, plus a phasing guide to plant it all at once or over several seasons.
Founding-client intro pricing. Limited spots as I build my Vermont portfolio.
Why Native
Native plants are adapted to our climate, so once established they need little watering or fuss, saving you time and money. They also support the birds, bees, and butterflies that local ecosystems depend on. A native planting is a garden that gives back: lower maintenance for you, and a real haven for Vermont's pollinators.
Meet the Designer
I'm an Environmental Science student in Burlington with a deep love for Vermont's native plants, animals, and wild places. I started Bloom Where You Live to help my neighbors turn ordinary yards into thriving, low-maintenance landscapes full of color and life.
Let's grow something beautiful together.
