Our leadership team

Liisa Schmitt, Owner and Principal Designer

I landscape because I want to bring beauty into the world. The work we do has the power to engage all of our the senses through the plants, animals and insects that nature lavishes on us. 

Nature and beauty make us better people. We are calmer, connected, and inspired. We can be humbled, comforted, and find security. Nature is beauty and power.

I am proud to be associated with these great organizations:

• Association of Professional Landscape Designers

• Minnesota Nursery and Landscape Association

• Wild Ones

• Audubon Society

• Cornel Lab of Ornithology

• Minnesota Landscape Arboretum

• Nature Conservancy

Erik Schmitt, Lead Crew Chief

I am the lead crew chief. I have eight years of experience in landscaping. I have taken classes in tree pruning, permeable pavers and espalier. I make sure the crews work safety and with care and skill. It is the attention we give that sets us apart. I landscape because I enjoy creating green spaces where plants can thrive and show the beauty that nature brings to our lives.
