As the owner of a landscape company, I met Jennifer after installing a beautiful design she had created for a customer. I was immediately impressed by her level of knowledge, skilled design, and use of technology. The customer was thrilled with the final product. After seeing how easy it was to work with her we started recommending BareRoot Designs to every customer that needs a landscape design. I can’t say enough good things!

Jennifer at BareRoot Designs is a very talented landscape architect and is incredibly knowledgeable about plants, especially edibles and how to weave them into your ornamental landscape. She is very reliable and she always goes the extra distance to ensure that her designs truly merge into the existing landscape and that her clients are completely satisfied with the end result. We would recommend her to anyone looking for more ways incorporate growing your own food into your landscape and also to learn more about natives and edibles and how they can be utilized in both commercial and residential

I recently moved into a new home on a lot that lacked any landscaping other than weeds. I was in need of a plan for the entire space and Jennifer at BareRoot Designs was the first designer I contacted for help. She made my decision easy because after an initial consultation, I was confident she was who I wanted to work with and there was no need to call anyone else.
Jennifer came up with a design that used stonework to highlight some of my favorite plants and made suggestions for additional trees and shrubs to form a cohesive plan around the house. She was flexible, professional and a very enjoyable

Working with Jennifer was a delight. She had wonderful ideas and incorporated my preferences and ideas into the plan. It has been a pleasure to see the final result each and every day and my neighbors and friends all complimented me on how good everything looked. I'm excited to see how it develops as the plants grow and spread.

Jennifer created an amazing design for both our front and back yard! She was incredibly helpful, offered design options that were both beautiful and functional/native, and incorporated all of the requests that we had. We get compliments from our neighbors all of the time, and feel so lucky to watch the already beautiful landscape mature and fill in. Highly recommend!

Jen is an absolute pleasure to work with. Her intuitive sense of style, and deep and broad knowledge of landscape design is palpable in the first 5 minutes of talking with her. She is passionate about her clients and her profession, and will exceed any and all expectations. She designed our front yard in a way that makes it beautiful no matter the season, and our continued joy at her design will be with us daily for years to come.

My wife and I really enjoyed working with Jennifer and can't wait to see her design for our backyard come to life over the years! She is friendly, very knowledgable, and a good communicator. Unlike other design professionals we've used who think only they know best, she really took the time to listen to our preferences and incorporate our ideas and tastes. We will absolutely use her again for future landscape design needs.

Clever, experienced, professional, expert, and kind... Jennifer is the best! She's helped me understand how to adapt to and update our landscaping without a total overall, and makes simple, attainable suggestions that have had a huge impact. I can't wait to have another walk in the garden with her and imagine what's next.
