Starter Package
- Consultation and site assessment
- Carbon Cycling Plan for your property
- One deep mulch bed up to 36 square feet
We will come do a site assessment and work with you to develop a plan to cycle your yard and food waste into your soil. We’ll plan a location and design for one deep mulch bed. We’ll work with you to procure the materials (cardboard, wood chips, logs, branches, manure or compost, soil, and starter seeds or plants). Once all of the materials are ready, we will assemble the bed. You may help and invite friends if you like. The cost is $200 for labor, plus any additional costs for materials. Additional beds may be added for $3 per square foot plus the cost of materials.
Basic Package
- 4 Hours of Regenerative Gardening Help per Month
- Carbon Cycling Plan for your property
- Basic Landscaping plan for your property
- Information about ecosystem regeneration
- Optional Yearly Garden Party
We will set up a regular monthly payment to the Living Systems Institute of $100.00 per month. We will find a gardener to dedicate 4 hours working in your yard for every month that you have subscribed. We have set up this basic package as an educational program to train new gardeners through apprenticeship with the Living Systems Institute and so the $100 per month can be claimed as a tax deductible donation. Cost of plants and materials is additional.
You may also choose to host a garden party with us on your property once per year, inviting your friends and neighbors to experience your new habitat! We will help organize and lead a talk or workshop during the party.
Additional Services
You and the gardener may decide to do a bigger project that cannot be accomplished in the 4 hours per month. For those projects you will need to agree on the cost and timeline and those payments will not be tax deductible.
