Description

 


"Avant Gardening and Landscaping is committed to creating artistic and sustainable garden spaces and providing a safe, fair work environmet for its employees."  It's pretty hard to argue with that. 


Look at what Avant's website discusses and shows you: space for living, storm water management (rain gardens, wetland filters green roofs, permeable paving), building healthy soil*, plant selection and--here's my favorite topic--what to expect. 

"Plant a radish, get a radish; not a brussel sprout." That's what I always thought, anyway.  Avant actually gives you a much better picture and is very likely to be able to make it happen.  Besides that, Liza Lightfoot and her colleagues are generous and committed to helping make the world a better place to live.  --Auctionmaster


P.S.Take a look at Kidlinks World, the exciting project Liza and friends founded in South Africa.  Be a part of it!

Special Instructions

*Here's what Avant says: "We recycle garden waste into a rich soil blend for a variety of uses in the landscape. When mixed with composted horse manure from local farms, the soil we install is rich in microorganisms, and ready to grow robust plants with little additional input."


Observation from the Garden Crusader:  These people are obviously crazy about doing right by the environment and their customers.  See for yourself!
