A worker-owned design, build, and maintenance cooperative

We Are The Peoples Gardening Collective

We were previously the landscaping division of the beloved City People's Garden Store, and with the blessing of the former owners, the employees organized into The Peoples Gardening Collective.

Our team of landscape specialists have diverse educational backgrounds including horticulture, environmental sciences, and arboriculture. Crew members have specialized certifications for building retaining walls, and installing pavers and permeable surfaces. Our skilled construction team builds a wide range of hardscaping designs.

This range of talent enables us to unlock the full potential of your exterior environment through careful management, planning, and design. Whether you already love your garden and wish to simply maintain it, or want to make improvements such as adding plants, irrigation, or hardscaping, we are excited to help!

We only use organic products, discourage pesticides and herbicides, and encourage proper cultural care of your garden through regular maintenance. In addition, we have taken a leap forward in Earth-friendly business practices to reduce waste by implementing a paperless system.

We hope you’ll join us in a holistic approach to beautifying your outdoor living space as well as preserving the integrity of our environment, communities, and humanity.
