So what types of projects are consumers having landscape designers do now?

Yes, the green-building movement is evolving. Homeowners are beginning to realize what ;landscape designers have known for a long time – the entire site has just as much impact on energy usage, environmental impact, and sustainability as the indoors.

Of course there’s COVID as a driver, but this need to develop beyond the structure of the home is influenced by many factors

  • wanting more usable space
  • having an outdoor environment that is both useful and energy-efficient
  • seeking ways to make their landscape more green
  • developing their homes and exteriors so that they can stay put

Among the most-requested item to have built is the outdoor great room.

Interestingly homeowners are thinking about these green trends

  • edible landscapes
  • native plantings & pollinator gardens
  • water gardens
  • dry riverbeds

For the first time in a while, parking for multiple cars and low-maintenance backyard hardscapes have taken over for building huge decks.


And last, global warming is real. Sudbury now is in 2023 USDA Hardiness Zone 6b (-5°F to 0°F) in 1990s it was 5b (-15°F to -10°F). Long term thinkers are wondering if they should plant trees from the mid-Atlantic states up here, more varieties that can survive. I’d love to plant some crepe myrtles in the yard but have to wait and see if they’d survive.
