When II was no longer able to take care of my gardens Allison and her team stepped up and did a wonderful job. They were knowledgable, thorough and reliable. My gardens even won an award from the Horticultural society of Orillia. I am moving and will miss them. I would recommend them to anyone,

We started our search for a Landscape & Design company back in June based on recommendations. When we called Michael Scott, within a few days Michael and Myles arrived to walk through our property and listened to the 'ideal' of what we would like to have done. With a few changes to their design and dividing the large project into phases we were warned that we may be looking at the fall or even next year for completion. As a result of scheduling changes we were bumped up to early August. The teams were efficient, friendly and completed the work, particularly, the front porch with precision. Would

I want to thank Michael Scott as well as his employees for being such a supportive and uplifting team. This place of work allowed me to gain a greater understand of the inner workings of landscaping as well as recognizing how to incorporate all the small and unique details that go into each and every project. Michael and his team leaders encourage and support their staff to train in all areas of production. With this guidance I was trained on how to handle a variety of saws as well as other machinery, all things I never saw myself being able to achieve. I would never hesitate to encourage a family
