Testimonials
"Rick has worked with us over the past ten years in many capacities. He began as a landscaper and over time started his own landscaping company, EcoCare which is solely responsible for the ongoing creation and maintenance of our diverse (220 acre) property which includes gardens, meadows, orchards, fruit trees, ornamentals, fields, streams, pond, forest and trails.
The level of care and attention he has given to our property in his time here is evident in its beauty, health and diversity. His communication, collaboration, responsiveness, ingenuity and reliability as both our landscaper and property manager are something we have come to rely on and are deeply grateful for. We know we can count on Rick and his team to do whatever is needed keep our property, which is our haven, thriving—through rain, shine, drought, flood and whatever other surprises climate change brings."

"Rick and his staff are true professionals! He’s responsive, communicates well, has deep knowledge of plants, especially natives, patiently answers questions and is passionately committed to his clients. We have several microclimates on the property and he has helped find solutions so our plants can thrive. We highly recommend EcoCare."

"EcoCare has transformed the entry way at my law office from a rundown, boring lawn into a lovely, welcoming and beautiful space. I constantly receive compliments on the garden EcoCare created there.
EcoCare also created and maintains the gardens at my home, including a difficult hillside area. I highly recommend EcoCare for both residential and commercial landscaping."
