As a Master Gardener, I have been honored twice with the PHS garden of distinction award for my innovative pollinator garden design. My areas of expertise lie in native plants and butterflies, and I am passionate about the benefits gardening has to offer for the soul, mind, and body. I work closely with homeowners, businesses, and townships to create stunning low-maintenance landscapes that also serve as habitats for wildlife. Whether you prefer remote planning or in-person consultation, I can design, select and install plants so you can have breathtaking outdoor spaces. Additionally, I deliver engaging presentations to non-profit organizations, professional associations, conferences, garden and civic clubs, church groups, and townships. I walk you through sustainable gardening techniques that not just enrich our families but also play a significant role in preserving wildlife.

Heather possessed a wealth of knowledge and was affable, supportive, and accommodating. She exhibited a strong work ethic, arriving on time and promptly getting down to business. She adhered to the design parameters I outlined from the outset without exceeding my comfort zone. I wouldn't hesitate to endorse her to others.

Hiring Garden Trust Consultants has been an absolute joy for me. The first conversation we had in February allowed me to start collecting the necessary supplies and planters. Heather expertly chose the right plants that fit my surroundings perfectly, and in April, she delivered them to my balcony. She also assisted me in planting them. Thanks to the green space she has created, my balcony has turned into a peaceful haven where I can sit at the end of a tiring day and savor a glass of wine. Heather's guidance has been instrumental in maintaining the beauty of my small balcony area, and I have learned so much from her. It goes to show that even with just a balcony, you can create an attractive outdoor space.

The pocket park in my neighborhood was expertly designed by Heather Andrews from GardenTrustConsultants, LLC. Originally planted by the community's builders, the area had been neglected and poorly maintained for five to six years. As a 55+ community, we requested permission from our HOA to adopt the space and Heather took charge in creating a beautiful and functional park with minimal upkeep. She evaluated the sunlight, soil conditions, and local weather to select native plants and pollinators that bloom at different times of the year. The result is a stunning park that also benefits local vegetable gardeners. In fact, it was recently selected by the community garden club for a special tour. It's incredible to think that Heather created this incredible space just one year ago. We truly couldn't be happier with the final result and Heather's expertise in designing a delightful park.
