• New Client Questionnaire / Service Form

    Dirt Design LLC
  • We don't offer services for miscellaneous yard work chores. Dirt Design LLC specializes in Garden Design and Install that crafts a plan unique to every property. Northern Michigan supports plants that reliably grow in Zone 4, yet there are many factors to consider when choosing the right plant for the right place. Our mission is to create successful gardens that work with the environmental conditions they are planted in and will contribute to the overall health, function, and appearance of the landscape. We start with soil health to ensure the plants have the best chance of success. We emphasize the importance of incorporating a combination of MI native plants in the Garden to support the right ecosystem, while still accommodating clients’ personal preferences and style. We offer continued maintenance on the gardens we install.

  • The following questions will allow me to better understand what you're looking for in your garden and what some of your preferences are as a client.

The focus of this style is on enhancing what is already there and transforming it into a simple, aesthetically functioning garden.
