Lousy service. Came out to our home and provided an estimated quote. Told us they would be able to…read moredo the job soon as they "weren't too busy" at the moment. Then they never showed and never responded to my follow-up call (10 days later) to inquire when we could expect them. Discourteous, unreliable and unprofessional company.

We moved into our house in 2015 with a "yard" that pretty much looked like an evergreen forest…read more With little kids, we want to make it into a true yard. We've worked with Grove Gardens over the past year to take down 30+ trees, excavate the land by removing stumps and rocks, tear down our old deck and build a bluestone patio, and tear out the many pavers in the front yard to replace with grass. Their service has been impeccable. Our yard is finally a place where our kids can play and where we can entertain outside. We love the work that has been done and can't recommend the company enough. The pictures are mostly in progress because we are still working on the yard and excited for the grass to grow in more. We can't wait for summer.

We have a new lawn! We were a bit remiss in raking (see: never) and weeding (see: once a summer…read morewhen they grow to my height) so we decided it was time to call in the professionals. I found Lawn Monkey online and they had many high ratings. Jeff was timely, friendly, and professional, came each time when he said he would. Now as far as the lawn goes, they did a great job cleaning up all the leaves scattered about, cut down part of an overgrown tree and moved the large logs, weeded my front and backyard near the house, trimmed the bushes in front so they look less ridiculous, and cleared everything out by our tree line. It looks SO much better now. I'm very happy with the job they did and would definitely recommend them to my friends in the area or on the shoreline.

Using plenty of native plants to create a space that is beautiful and healthy, to incorporate a bit of rewilding designs. I have a great love for our planet and the creatures that we share it with. I was a kid of the 70s and spent every waking moment outdoors in the woods or fields near my home. Back then they were full of such diversity, there was life in everything around me! Now those places are void of life, they are now neighborhoods with lawns, the natural wonders have been silenced! Flash forward 50 years I have grown children of my own, the change in nature in my life time scares the crap out of me! I am so saddened and enraged that this collapsed ecosystem is is what their generation's base line of the world is, and it keeps dwindling with every generation. Its all they know. They do not know what its like stepping out into a diverse magical world of plants, bugs, birds and all the little creatures that should be! I come from a background in the landscape and nursery industry, called the green industry, but what I was seeing in nature told me what we where doing was far from green. So I decided I had to do my best to protect and restore our amazingly beautiful home, and help others creat safe spaces for those we share this living planet with.
