Gardener in Boston, Massachusetts

I'm an
Individual
Hey there, neighbor! I'm Kelsey, your award winning, organic gardener extraordinaire. Whether you need help in prepping your garden for the upcoming season, designing a garden right for you, maintaining your current greenery, or house plants care: I'm here to lend my green thumb as if they were my own plants. With my Biology and Environmental Science degrees, and with 5 plus years of experience in designing, soil prepping, weed control, pruning, trimming, and seasonal clean-up, I'll make sure your garden/outdoor space is a beautiful, calming oasis. I maintain over 1000 plants of my own between my indoor space, patio, and flower bed throughout the growing season. I succession plant to get the most out of the growing season. I propagate new plants from cuttings, and I collect seeds from my plants for the following year. I focus on utilizing native plants to help the bees, butterflies, pollinators, and soil quality. I optimize companion planting to deter harmful insects and diseases. I also have experience getting rid of garden rodents (if any). I've planned and designed 2 separate gardens myself, a porch container garden and flower bed garden. I maximize my porch space using containers. I am able to grow a unique variety of at least 35 different fruits, vegetables, and herbs on my tiny porch (10ft x 3ft). My large flower garden is my favorite. I grow over 60 unique varieties in the colors of the rainbow in a raised bed (70ft x 6ft). I make sure flowers are blooming in unique, rare colors from April to October. The sunflowers grew to 12 feet to 14 feet! Due to the large abundance of flowers, I sold over 70 bouquets, and still had flowers left for the pollinators. I won an award from the City of Boston as a finalist in the Urban Outdoor Garden Space category in my neighborhood's annual garden competition! I have 40 indoor plants. I'm great at saving sad plants, if you need help with that. My oldest house plant is 10 years old and 7 feet tall. My schedule is flexible. My services are charged at a competitive rate, ensuring that you get professional, gentle care for your plants. On weekends I charge for time and a half. I take immense pride and am extremely passionate about gardening. I would be honored to provide expert care for your beloved plants.
