Foresty mulching

Forestry Mulching

Forestry mulching is a process that rids undesirable vegetation such as trees, brush forest debris and stumps are ground into mulch by a low impact machine. The end result is a mulch that is evenly distributed over the cutting area, no brush piles, no burning, and no stripped land. This process actually reduces growth, prevents erosion, and add nutrients to the soil base.

Trails

trails & paths

We focus our trail construction around activities such as hiking, biking, horseback riding, and cart paths. Trails are also a great way to enjoy the natural beauty of your property. To develop a trail we begin with the layout which is important to both maintenance and age.

Kent Greenhouse

Kent greenhouse gardens

When Debby and Bruce Bennett opened their florist in Kent in 1973, they had high hopes and enthusiasm to build a sustainable green business that could support their young family. A tiny greenhouse, unheated building and an antique caboose were the foundations for this now thriving company.

Time, hard work and more hard work saw the business expand as they became recognized for good value,
quality plants and a source for inspirational landscape design.
