About

We envision a world in which human-centered spaces exist directly alongside and intermingled with healthy living communities of the many diverse organisms who also call our neighborhoods home. Moving toward this healthier world means rehabilitating enormous swaths of lawn and degraded habitat—and working with such large areas requires thoughtful design and different approaches to imagining and managing our outdoor landscape.

Untamed Gardens was founded in 2021 to bridge the divide between traditional landscaping and ecological restoration. Guided by both ecological and functional design considerations we create easy transitions between formal and wild spaces, integrating your outdoor living space with meaningful habitat. We dramatically expand the footprint of the typical garden by mixing curated native plantings with more lightly managed plant communities including meadows, woodlands, and shrub borders.

We believe all land is precious and that sharing our space—no matter how large or small—with our broader living community makes our lives healthier and more enriching. Contact us today and let’s set up a time to envision how you and your own home space can flourish.
