Since 2006, Green City Gardens has been beautifying the North Shore, one yard at a time. Our enthusiasm and dedication are evident in the creativity of our designs and the superior quality of our work. Since every landscape is different, “cookie cutter” solutions won’t do. Green City Gardens personalizes every design according to our clients’ needs and desires. We won’t show up and dictate what you need…we’ll listen to you and give you what you want. From complete landscape design & installation to simple garden makeovers to beautiful seasonal flower pots, Green City Gardens can improve your quality of life.
You dream it, we design it
We can make your dream a reality. Want to bump up your curb appeal? Ready to take that awkward space and turn it into a private haven? Have you been itching to update your tired landscape but don’t know where to start? Then look no further…
Great landscaping starts with great design, and great design starts with listening…to your desires, your tastes, your likes and your dislikes. You’ll tell us what you’ve been dreaming of creating. Then we’ll combine your vision with our creativity and put it all on the drawing board.
