Does anyone have experience with Groundworks Inc? I searched the forum and the archive and I can’t seem to come across any recommendations, good or bad. I met with Alice and I really liked her and her ideas, but I would be so much more comfortable if I could find third-party validation on Brownstoner! Anyone? By the way, I came across Groundworks through two separate recommendations — one from a gardener two years ago, and another from an (unrelated) landscape architect (whose services I could not afford). This bodes well for Groundworks, but I find it surprising that I can’t seem to find any threads on Brownstoner singing their praises. MANY THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Hope that you will accept this as the credible post it is since I am newly registered after years of simply reading the forums. We have used Groundworks since 2009 when they were originally recommended by our landscape architect. They provide maintenance services for our very large rear and very small front gardens and also purchase plantings when needed for both. We have found them to be extremely competent, reliable, and responsive. I’ve recommended them to friends and have no hesitation in recommending them to the Brownstoner community.
