★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Dave and his team recreated our entire front yard. They removed unwanted yew, transplanted overgrown dogwood, and put in native trees and the most beautiful flower bed full of native plants. We cannot wait to watch it all come into its own.Dave is simultaneously capable and easygoing. He definitely knows his stuff, and is willing to listen and adjust accordingly. His team did great work. 16+ different varieties of native flowers and plants added to our yard overnight.Here is a before and after of our entryway; the quality of the trees he sourced is amazing.Edited one year after installation to add a picture. All the trees are thriving. A majority of the plants came back. We are thrilled at the dozens of native bees and fireflies that are everywhere!
July 26 · Anna PrudenDave Eubanks has helped us create a beautiful native garden filled with life. We first hired Dave 4 years ago to remove invasive buckthorn, seed that area with shade-loving plants, then plant new trees along the front perimeter of our yard—he even worked with a design layout I came up with while researching natives, just steering me away from some that wouldn’t play as well with others. He helped plant in front of a remaining buckthorn hedge that will be removed when the new trees and shrubs get big enough. Then we had him remove large grassy areas and create new mulch beds under the trees we planted. He also added key plants to a pre-existing rain and butterfly garden, then later we had him remove grass and do a formal native planting at the entrance to our house—proving that natives can absolutely be planted in a formal way. Lastly, he helped remove a large area of grass and turn it into a prairie with a path running through it. We get many compliments from our neighbors despite most of our neighborhood being conventional lawn-heavy yards. The yard was the first thing we touched when we moved in since trees need time to grow—we’re amazed at how tall they’ve already become and the yard is now the main inspiration for my paintings.
November 26 · Allison HausladenWe had Eubanks Environmental transform our landscape last Fall from a boring front lawn and a mud pit in the backyard to native gardens all around the house, and we couldn't be happier. Dave is a great communicator, down to earth, fun guy to work with. It was great to have someone with such extensive knowledge and experience come in to completely redesign our landscape, while incorporating our ideas and desires into the plan as well. We've gotten so many compliments from our neighbors, and our gardens are beautiful even in the middle of winter, with or without snow. We can't wait to see the trees, shrubs, and other plants "waking up" in the spring, filling in our beautiful gardens, and contributing to our local ecosystem by attracting pollinators, birds, and hopefully even more wildlife. We highly recommend Dave for native landscape design and implementation.
February 05 · Luciana Zanella TyteniczWe have been working with Dave and Eubanks Environmental since 2021 and have thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. They designed a fabulous overall plan for our 1.8 acre property which we have implemented in phases. Dave and his crew of men have removed invasives, installed native trees, shrubs, flowers, and grasses as well as seeded a savanna border. Garden beds around the house are designed and planted using only native plants. Looking out every window is like looking at a living painting. Dave's knowledge of native ecosystems is extensive and impressive which was important to us as one of our main goals for our project was to support native wildlife. He has been honest and ethical in all matters, has promptly responded to emails and messages, has listened carefully to us and our goals for our property. The project has been a true collaboration and a complete joy. Dave is kind, friendly, open and honest, easy to talk to, happily answers questions, and communicates well. His crew is hardworking and skilled at their craft. We love having them here and look forward to continuing our relationship as we move into the maintenance phase of our project.
February 01 · JoAnn BergquistThis year will be the third growing season for our Pollinator Garden. Because the native plants are in our front yard, neighbors get to enjoy the blooms while they walk by.
