Frustrated by Dead Plants, Poor Soil, or No Time to Water?

We get it—gardening should be enjoyable, not exhausting. But without a quality setup, it’s easy to waste time, water, and money.

Many Sacramento-area homeowners start out excited to grow their own food, only to hit roadblocks with bad soil, poor drainage, or inconsistent watering.

A professionally installation saves time and sets you up for success—whether you’re a weekend gardener or growing with your kids.

What’s Included in Our Garden Installation Service

We provide full-service garden installation for Greater Sacramento Area homeowners—complete with custom garden boxes, premium soil, and efficient irrigation systems.

Custom Garden Bed Construction

We install raised garden boxes built from durable redwood or cedar—naturally rot-resistant and ideal for food-safe planting. Each box is custom-cut, leveled, and anchored for long-term use, whether you’re working with a patio, side yard, or full backyard space.

Great gardens start with great soil. We fill every bed with a rich, well-draining mix of screened topsoil, aged compost, and organic matter that supports healthy root systems, moisture retention, and long-term plant growth.

Every garden we install includes a complete drip irrigation system designed to conserve water and eliminate overwatering. Timers, pressure regulators, and emitter lines ensure that each section of your garden receives the right amount of moisture, even during hot Sacramento summers.

Not sure what to grow? We help you plan your garden layout based on sun exposure, companion planting strategies, and your harvest goals. Whether it’s tomatoes, peppers, lettuce, or herbs, we’ll guide you toward the best planting arrangement for your setup.

Upgrade your garden with options like climbing trellises, gopher wire liners, deer fencing, built-in seating, or mulch pathways. These features help protect your investment, increase functionality, and elevate your garden’s visual appeal.
