Butterfly Effect Gardens
Rebuilding Native Habitat in the East Bay, One Garden at a Time.
A passion for restoring habitat.
‘I can’t solve the problems of climate change, but I can plant a garden.’
Thoughtful Renovation and Restoration
Design and installation of new gardens, as well as increasing habitat value of existing gardens. Stewardship is essential.
Continuous Support
Gardens should be maintained, not manicured. I tend to get invested in the gardens I build, and want to ensure their continued wellness.
Responsible Irrigation . . .
. . . which I often call irritation, as it is a necessary evil to help California Native gardens look their best during our driest months.
