ONLY 10-time Super Service Award Winner in Massachusetts Landscape Industry. Mid-sized landscape design & build. Lawn replacement strategies. Activity and gathering areas, home entries, glorious beds. Exceptional horticulture and site engineering. Owner, Leisha Johnson is an accomplished landscape designer, with hundreds of installed designs. A talented horticulturist and Certified Master Gardener, she holds a Masters' degree in Engineering and has extensive large-scale project management experience. Leisha and her team work to stay current on industry technology, environmental, plant and materials advances. The staff which includes horticulturalists and certified horticulturalists enjoy bringing natural beauty to our clients. Many projects are employing turf alternatives, pollinator gardens, and naturalistic landscapes. The owner holds a Construction Supervisor License (CSL) and pulls permits for projects when needed. We always enjoy a challenge.

"Leisha and the team at Garden’s by the Yard helped me address some very difficult landscaping issues. Our lot borders conservation land and is slopped and extremely rocky. In addition, it is not accessible to heavy machinery. We experienced significant drainage and erosion issues. The team put in two French drains to help with erosion and Leisha developed a planting plan that leaned toward natives, would provide multiple season colors, aid in water control and would thrive in our complex soil conditions. They also installed an irrigation system to help set us up for success. The team has returned multiple times to check on the plantings and provide additional upkeep and guidance The yard turned out beautiful and I am extremely pleased. Leisha and her team were knowledgeable and easy to work with. The crews were hard-working and extremely respectful of our property."
