We hired Ashley Farrell to help us take the first step towards wildfire hardening our home. This involved a lot of projects, including tearing down and building a new fence, removing old growth, redoing all the planters around our house and a installing a new patio. Their service was excellent all around. Their workers showed up on time, worked hard all day and were very professional. Their staff was easy to communicate with and responded quickly to any questions or concerns. Their site-supervisor made sure everything was done right and was on-site at least once every day. And Ashley was just obviously someone we could trust to make sure everything met or exceeded our expectations. I paid a bit more for their service than the other quotes I got, but for the results we got, it was worth every bit of the price. read more

Ashley Farrell Landscape Design - Landscape Architects or Designers Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

Ashley and her team are amazing. She is a true artist whose vision evolves with the project. The entire team worked tirelessly and left the site clean and orderly at the end of each day. We are over the moon with our front yard transformation. I'd hire her again in a heartbeat! read more

We were thrilled with the results of our new landscaping project Ashley completed in our backyard. Our yard was transformed, from a place where we spent very little time, to a place where we want to be outdoors all the time. We eat lunch outside almost every day and enjoy entertaining as well. Ashley has a creative design style. We met with Ashley and her team and described the outcome we were after, she listened to our requirements and then successfully designed and created our ideal backyard. She has a hard-working, diligent work crew who executed the plan including demo, irrigation, pavers, drainage, and planting. Ashley provided us with an estimate, and even though we had a large eucalyptus tree lose a big limb, the project still came in on time and on budget. We can't wait until next year for Ashley to design and transform our front yard. read more

From planning to completion, working with Ashley and her energetic team was a fun and creative process. She had great vision in solving site specific challenges and implementing a final makeover that is now an inviting back yard landscape for the family to enjoy for many years. Well done Ashley!

I had Ashley and her crew back after a number of years to build a sturdy gate with a combination lock and to refresh my plantings. Ashley, Ellen, and the whole crew are amazing. Ashley can take one look at your garden, and know what it needs and where. And she has an expert crew to make it happen. i wouldn't have anyone else. read more

Going in, we had some general ideas about the landscaping changes we wanted for our Goleta tract home, but Ashley was able to take those general ideas, enhance the good ones, steer us away from the bad ones and turn the result into a plan for a beautiful and practical living space. She was then able to take that plan and direct her crew to create it within a reasonable budget and time frame. When they completed the job, they had not only done the basics, but had managed to figure out how to add irrigation to a number of preexisting plants I had not been able to add it to previously, plus added mulch to a part of our yard that needed it, but was not part of the original landscaping footprint. One of the few benefits to being at home so much during the pandemic is that we have had lots of time to enjoy the "personal park" she created for us. She has both the eye for beautiful design and the head (and crew) for the practical business of getting it done. We don't foresee needing her services again any time soon, but if you do I would highly recommend her services. read more

Ashley and her team created a magical botanical garden in our backyard, full of drought tolerant plants, rich textures, delightful knolls and eco-friendly permeable materials. Everywhere your eye rests there is a new discovery - a hummingbird, a succulent peeping from behind a rock, or a blaze of colorful flowers. Her entire team is professional and skilled, from installing new drains to setting flagstone - they are a pleasure to work with! read more

We don't think 5 stars is enough to express what a great job Ashley and her crew did with our backyard. Right from the design all the way through the installation it was perfect. Ashley & Cynthia were always prompt with appointments and phone calls. We had a very large backyard that consisted of nothing but dirt. We were not sure what to do back there, but Ashley came up with an amazing design. They installed a retaining wall, flower beds, grass, trees, all the irrigation, a flagstone fire pit area & even a bocce ball court. We would HIGHLY recommend Ashley Farrell Landscape for any of your landscaping needs. You will not be disappointed. read more

Really rude to all the neighbors. It was a nightmare for the neighbors. They leave there loud diesel trucks running for no reason. Super messy would not recommend. read more

Ashley and her team transformed our front yard from a haphazard-lawnish-real-sad-in-places corner lot into a beautiful, peaceful, drought-friendly garden that is alive with hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies. And it's only been in for two weeks! Ashley and her team clearly love what they do. Not only do they have the experience and expertise to get the job done... they have the passion to boot. As my 4 yr son said, "They made a new world." I couldn't agree more. read more

Ashley Farrell and her landscape design team created a beautiful desert oasis all around my property. I had a dry creek created in the front with all drought tolerant plants to compliment it. The team also set up the hard scrape and plumbing for a jacuzzi and built an outdoor shower. They installed new drip irrigation. They dug up grass and hauled out my jungle of a yard to replace it with beautiful new plants and stone walkways. She had outstanding professionals ready and willing to create the landscape and hardscape that made this beautiful project happen. She is present on the site daily and easy to contact if there are questions. She worked within my budget and finished on time. I would recommend her to anyone. read more

Ashley and her team were wonderful. They were professional, timely and responsive. We are very happy with the design, implementation and final project. read more

We selected Ashley Farrell Landscape after interviewing several other local folks and talking to a couple of her previous (very happy) clients. We were very happy with her work and her entire team. She came in on budget and was reasonably priced when we asked for additional work. She came almost every morning to give instructions to her team about what needed to be done and then came back every afternoon to assure everything was on track and to keep the work area clean. Her staff of workers showed up on time at 8am every day and worked very hard throughout the project. They were respectful to the neighbors as far as how they carried out their work. Ashley had good, original ideas and she was able to do the project without an architectural drawing which would have added unnecessary cost to our project. I created my own drawing which she brought to life beautifully. We went together to a wholesale nursery and selected the plants together. Her stone workers are very talented and matched our existing flagstone. She and her team worked very quickly and finished the project in about a month. Her office manager Ellen is very organized and attentive. We are thrilled with our results and are really enjoying our new backyard. Ashley was a joy to work with and a fun person to know. I would recommend Ashley Farrell Landscape without hesitation. read more

Ashley is a true professional and she has a great crew working with her. Beyond that she has the ability to visualize a blank space and turn it into something really quite beautiful. And to top it all off, she listens to her clients wishes and lets them speak up when it is important to them. I am pleased to give Ashley my strong and confident recommendation. read more

We really wanted to like them. We invested time to go over our design. When they finally got back to us with a quote, it was six figures. This is just a front part of the garden in Santa Barbara not a huge Montecito estate. When we wrote back asking if there was a mistake with the decimal, we heard nothing back. We gave them the benefit of the doubt that maybe they didn't get the email so we followed up again. They still couldn't be bothered to get back to us. I later met the stone company they subcontract to and found them unreliable as well. We did the project for much less with reputable licensed groups for much less than their inflated bid. Their bid Was also way more than another reputable known group in town. The point is if you invest the time, they should reciprocate with helping to hone down and provide an appropriate quote within a reasonable budget. This even happened even though I had invested with a well drawn out professional Nagelmann design as a general guide to make a bid easier. Not responding to a potential client does not bode well. I respected their time and I didn't feel like they respected mine in return, given that they would not bother to respond to us when we got there six-figure bid. Update: I re-emailed the owner. I reminded her that she had a chance to look at Eric's design and her emails acknowledge it. I also told her I have the contact of her stone guy and his brother who do their own work with her own company. Maybe they have two companies and then working with her and their own. Also it is not productive for the owner to try to discredit us. We invest in our reviews please look at our history. We've had A crazy person be dangerous to our family so we have some anonymity with our picture. I have since emailed Ashley today to reiterate our issues. I would not take the time to write all of these reviews both on her company and others both positive and hopefully constructively critical for the sake of it. We are all very busy especially after the fires and mud slides. I am sharing in hopes that it is a learning experience for her and if others As one data point. We didn't get anywhere directly and I was Laurie told. There are clearly plenty of good reviews and we are all grown up so we can take these data points and make the decisions for ourselves. I'm a business owner so I understand both sides of the fence. read more

Ashley Farrell Landscape Design is the BEST! We contacted her after meeting with several other Landscapers and instantly knew we wanted to work with her. We are beyond pleased with the complete re landscaping of our front yard...and our neighbors are too! Here are some of the things we loved about working with her: 1. She is efficient! She has a schedule and keeps to it and is very conscious of her clients budget. 2. She has an amazing eye and terrific style. We felt comfortable giving her some of our ideas and wants and let her do the rest. 3. She and her team are hardworking, and professional. There is no mess to clean up at the end of the day. Her crew knows what to do and does it well. 4. She is ON SITE ...EVERY DAY to ensure that her design is being followed correctly...she will reset things or re direct if necessary...and most importantly she CREATES her masterpiece daily. We were so re assured by this. 5. She has continued to be there after the project is done and has been known to stop by without our knowledge and 'touch up' as she just can't help herself. 6. Her rates were fair and reasonable!! We would 100% highly recommend her and her team and plan to use her again for future projects. We have had people stop by our home to ask us who did the work on our yard so we've already referred her to many people and will continue to do so. A great company and Ashley is a true PLEASURE to work with!! read more

We hired Ashley Farrell to hardscape and landscape our small yard, including irrigation. Ashley and her team were professional and thorough from the moment she came to view our home to completion of the project. Her design incorporated all of our requests while remaining within our budget. We were very impressed by the quality of the materials she suggested for us. She has a keen eye for matching the aesthetics of a property with outdoor spaces. She and her team were very responsive, and still are to this day if we have a question. Now we have a beautiful and functional yard that our family and friends can enjoy. read more

Ashley and her team are incredible to work with! From start to finish the creativity of the landscape design and execution were seamless. I love all of the drought tolerant plants Ashley suggested. I can't recommend them enough...they are changing lives, one backyard at a time! read more

Just wanted to echo the other posts here. We did a little research locally before we asked Ashley to work with us. Reviews on social media were very good - and now we know why. Ashley was responsive, showed up on time (a rarity around here), listened to what we had in mind, and came back to us in a couple of days with a design and a budget. Her crew was great and they got the job done quickly. Follow-up has also been good, so it's not a case of "done with you - moving on now." We're extremely happy with the results of Ashley's design and installation, and you will be, too! read more

Ashley is an amazing artist. I looked around town for many months looking for gardens that impressed me and the ones that I thought were spectacular were often her work so I contacted her for my job. Being someone from a similar industry ( florist) I had very high expectations and Ashley and her team checked all my boxes from beginning to end. Not only does she have a masters eye, she is professional and her team all hard working respectful individuals. I put our garden in her care and I am over the mood with the results. We did our due diligence and had several bids done on the job but she was by far the most knowledgeable. After she came it was a done deal. She obviously loves what she does and it shows in her work. She's a rockstar! read more

Ashley redesigned the front and backyard in our home and we are very happy. She was very attentive and professional. I highly recommend.

Ashley and her design team did a fabulous job designing and installing my back patio/garden. It is a small space and they helped implement my vision of a simple yet functional space. She made great plant material selections including creating some lovely succulent plantings in large pots. The estimate was reasonable and the work was completed within budget and in a timely manner. When a few of the plants did not make they quickly came and replaced them. I would not hesitate to use her again in the future. read more

Ashley landscaped our front yard in 2014. She was highly recommended to us by a friend and we could not be happier with the outcome. From the initial contact to the final touch, she was always pleasant, enthusiastic, and easy to work with. She is professional, knowledgeable, honest and fair, environmentally conscious, and has a creative mind. The quality of her work is exceptional. Our front yard ended up with drought resistant plants with amazing colors and texture year round; the stone retaining walls were beautifully built; and fluttering in the neighborhood are monarch butterflies hatched on the milkweeds she planted for us. We enjoy our front yard and get compliments from neighbors and passersby all the time. We would recommend Ashley to anyone who is looking for a top-notch landscape designer. read more

Ashley & her crew did a wonderful & cost-conscious design and installation of our small backyard & side-of-house space. We very much appreciated both her willingness to work with us on a tight budget & the thoughtfulness and sense of commitment with which she goes about her work. The design itself is beautiful & organic, very much in keeping with the surrounding environment around our small house. This is a great company! read more

Repeat customer for good reason . . . Ashley (please address her by her first name as she is not a big faceless corporation) originally came highly recommended by a friend to do the complete landscaping and home yard construction work to do the first phase of our complete home (front & backyard) landscaping. There's so much that I am 100% delighted with the work she and her excellent crew did to make our home absolutely *wonderful* the first time that I had no hesitation to call her again for continuing our next phase of home exterior work. This is where it's important for me to mention the most important things about Ashley's work. . . . . I have relied upon Ashley to quickly and beautifully envision a landscape design most appropriate for my home. Then the work that her crew does is absolutely first class and quality that will last for years to come. And the work does not drag out for a long time, being completed in a quick and diligent manner. And for me, this cannot be overstated. . . . there is no job or landscape detail that is either too small, or too large for Ashley and her crew to handle. They can plant a single plant, or can complete complex construction work such as sheds, irrigation, pathways and yard dividers (fencing / walls), all with the crew as nice and accommodating as one could wish. And her pricing is completely reasonable for the work performed. I'm sorry if I sound overly effusive about Ashley and her work, but Ashley Farrell landscape makes me personally so happy with the final result that I tell others that this is how a proper business should be run to meet & exceed the customer's expectation. There is no doubt that I will hire Ashley again when I am ready for the next home exterior project that I will need in the future. read more

Ashley and team are wonderful. They did a fantastic job designing and planting our back yard. They have knowledge, great ideas, and they care. Every little detail is important. See my review on Houzz. This is a quality company with quality people. I would recommend them to everyone. read more
