Garden Cleanup

Restoring Neglected Sites to Create Thriving Spaces

Is your raised bed or container garden currently looking less like a serene oasis and more like an untamed jungle? Don't stress—even the most neglected, weed-choked plots have hidden potential waiting to be unlocked. My Garden Cleanup services are designed to hit the reset button on worn-out spaces, transforming tired spaces into nutrient-rich environments ready for new life.

I roll up my sleeves and systematically restore your outdoor areas across Lake Oswego, West Linn, and surrounding areas using proven permaculture techniques that heal the garden from the soil up.

What My Cleanup Process Includes:

• Debris & Structural Cleanup: I clear out accumulated yard waste, dead plant matter, stray rocks, and forgotten clutter to reclaim your space and reveal its true boundaries.

• Meticulous Root-Level Weeding: Deep, non-mechanical removal of aggressive weeds and invasive species to ensure stubborn root systems won't immediately pop back up to compete with your crops.

• Comprehensive Soil Testing: I analyze your existing soil's structure, pH levels, and nutrient balance to determine exactly what amendments are needed for optimal fertility.

• Organic Enrichment: Amending depleted raised bed and container soil with high-grade organic compost, natural minerals, and rich soil builders—restoring air pockets and biological vitality without harsh synthetics.

• Weed Suppression: Placing environmentally-friendly weed suppression fabrics under containers and/or soil burrowing guards for containers where needed to shield your space from future weed invasions and pest intrusions.

• Functional Aesthetics & Mulching: Finishing the space with high-quality organic mulch to retain moisture, regulate root temperature, prevent weed growth, and give your garden an instantly polished look.

From Abandoned Yard to Abundant Harvest

You don't need to scrap a neglected garden plot and start from scratch at full price. With proper proper cleanup and enrichment, I rebuild the living biology within your raised beds and planters, turning a backyard eyesore into a clean slate that's ripe for productive container placements, edible crops, and lush ornamentals.
