Landscape & Garden Services
COMPLETE LANDSCAPE DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION
Summersweet Farm will design and develop a custom outdoor space that you’ll be proud to show off to your friends and colleagues. Employing a unique and proprietary client checklist process, we’ll establish your specific landscaping dreams and goals. We’ll then analyze your site, and with careful consideration of your goals, develop a master plan design. This master plan is then broken down into phases according to your budget and priorities. We’ll take care of the necessary municipal permits before beginning construction so you don’t need to worry. After construction begins, just sit back and watch your property transform into a stunningly beautiful environment for entertaining and relaxing.
WATER FEATURES, PONDS & CUSTOM POOLS
People naturally gravitate toward water, lured by it’s aesthetic in the landscape as well as it’s auditory qualities, creating a sense of tranquility. Incorporating water features into your landscape can add significant value to your property. But whatever type of water feature you have in mind, it must blend seamlessly with the landscape. We’ll insure that your water feature design will adhere to the adage “form follows function” – making sure that it accomplishes your functional and aesthetic goals as well as the environmental conditions of your site.
HARDSCAPE INSTALLATION
Before plants or trees, (the “softscape”) can be installed into your new outdoor space, the “hardscape” must be carefully planned, designed, measured, and installed with meticulous attention to detail. This “ hardscape” refers to the landscape materials built into the environment creating the infrastructure out of which this new, living landscape environment will flourish. This can include grading, subsurface drainage structures and pipes, paving, walls, wood or concrete structures and lighting. Our construction crew’s motto is, “ Build it right once and build it to last!” Our clients are continually impressed with our extreme attention to detail in every aspect of the built design – from sub-base stone installation to the intricate patterns for which are patios are widely recognized.
What Our Customers Say

Our ICPI Certified Hardscape Professionals have the skills and expertise to exceed your expectations with the installation of all paving materials – whether bluestone, brick, natural stone or concrete pavers.

Is there a better place for friends to gather on a cool evening than by a fire? We’ll incorporate the perfect size and shape fireplace or fire pit in materials to compliment your new outdoor space – creating a natural gathering space for family and friends.

Landscape Lighting
Even the most modest of landscape designs can be enhanced with landscape lighting. Proper lighting can also address safety concerns where there are steps leading from one space to another, or other potential circulation hazards. In addition, up-lighting trees and shrubs will enhance the appeal of your property at night. Our lighting will make your property shine.
Custom Carpentry
Many people don’t consider the importance of carpentry skills when choosing a landscaping company. However, these skills are critical to any project incorporating carpentry work such as decks, railings, steps, pergolas, covered outdoor kitchens, sheds, tree houses, play structures or any other structure that must meet strict safety codes.
Landscape Planting
We are passionate about plants! In addition to holding degrees in Ornamental Horticulture, our staff regularly attends continuing education classes at Longwood Gardens and Morris Arboretum. We pride ourselves in being the experts in specifying plant material for your unique site conditions: shade, sun, wet or dry. Overwhelmed by the thousands of plant choices available? Relax. Every project is custom designed with the absolute best plant materials selected to flourish on your site with year-round appeal.
Grading & Drainage Solutions
Many properties have serious existing drainage issues. We have the knowledge to address and rectify these issues. We utilize U-drain/perimeter drains, foundation drains, seepage pits and yard drains, as well as piping downspouts away from your structure to solve your water issues.
Meadow Construction
Some clients come to us to reduce mowing maintenance on large properties. We have designed grass and wildflower meadows with mown walkways to reduce mowing to a few times a year. These areas are visually appealing as well as functional.
Water Features
Custom pools, streams, ponds, fountains. We’ve done them all! If you would love the visual and auditory appeal of a water feature on your property, talk to us about how we can incorporate that into your landscape design. We’ll insure that it accomplishes your functional and aesthetic goals as well as the environmental conditions of your site.
