Our Story & Expertise

My grandmother taught me that the secret of good gardening is focused and informed attention. My first garden as an adult was in Muir Beach in 1979 and what a thrill it was to see local plants flourish and blossom. When my neighbors saw what I had created in my garden they asked me to do my magic in their gardens. I loved it and wanted to know more. I took classes, specialized trainings, got my license and started Forester Landscaping in 1985. I have used organic practices from the beginning.

I am Master Gardener trained and Bay-Friendly Certified. With a life-long passion for gardening, I am attuned to the aesthetic properties and potential of each garden, be it modern, traditional, or somewhere in between. I am particularly knowledgable about low-maintenance and low-water use gardening.

My staff is experienced in the fine pruning and plant care that maintains a vibrant garden.
