About Us
A small studio, deliberately.
We take on a limited number of projects each year so the same people stay with a garden from the first survey through its maturity.
Meet Ryan Holton
My name is Ryan Holton, and I'm currently a senior studying Landscape Architecture at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I've always had a strong connection to the outdoors and enjoy working hands-on with landscapes, whether through design or installation. I'm passionate about creating outdoor spaces that are not only functional, but thoughtful, well-designed, and tailored to each client. By combining my education with real-world experience, I help homeowners visualize their landscapes before any plants go in the ground.
I started landscaping at just 13 years old after a neighbor noticed the yard work I was doing at my own home and asked if I could mow her lawn. That first job quickly grew through word of mouth, expanding from one neighbor to the next, and today I service nearly that entire street. What began as a small side job became a long-term passion and business. My goal is to continue growing my skills and experience and eventually open my own landscape architecture firm. My mission is to design and build outdoor spaces that are intentional, sustainable, and built to last — helping clients feel confident in their landscape from concept to completion.
