Company News

Good stewardship makes good business sense. Sustainable site practices provide triple bottom line benefits:

  • Economic – Maintenance expense is lower for areas converted from traditional landscapes into to native plantings, and can typically be paid for out of savings from existing maintenance expenditures.


    • (1) Turf area sprayed out and seeded to natives
    (2) Same area three years later

  • Environmental – Native areas require less fertilizer, herbicide, fuel and labor to maintain. They add beauty and biodiversity. Native plants have deep roots that absorb water and help reduce site runoff by up to 80% over traditional turf landscapes.






  • Social – Corporate Social Responsibility is visibly demonstrated by your native plantings and sustainable site practices as you use less of limited resources and produce fewer pollutants.




    • Bedrock Earthscapes, LLC provides high quality maintenance of natural areas and created native areas.

  • We offer a high level of experience and expertise to commercial, municipal and institutional organizations.
  • We take pride in providing responsive and personalized customer service.
  • In addition to native area maintenance, we also use native plants and sustainable water conservation methods to design, install and transform existing landscapes into environmentally sustainable, beautiful and cost effective earthscapes.

    • If there is anything we can do to help you with improving those areas, or adding new native areas, please let us know.
