OUR MISSION
To create beautifully designed, regenerative spaces where people and nature thrive together, fostering community, supporting social responsibility, and bringing people together through food, art, and shared care for one another and the Earth.
ABOUT MEND
Rooted in ecology, guided by place.
MEND was founded on a simple but radical idea: that landscapes should give more than they take. Inspired by permaculture, forest ecology, and indigenous land stewardship, we work alongside homeowners, municipalities, and community organizations to design living systems that provide climate resilient habitat for humans and wildlife.
Our team brings together ecological designers, certified arborists, and hands-in-the-soil installers who are as comfortable with a plant palette as they are with a shovel. We don't just plant — we design relationships between people, plants, soil, water and wildlife that function as nature intended and strengthen over time.
Based in New England, we work across residential, institutional, and public-space projects — always asking: what does this land want to become?

WHAT WE DO
Services built around living systems.
Edible Garden Design and Install
We create gardens from raised beds to in-ground and kitchen gardens, tailored to your vision and the unique conditions of your site.
Complete Year-Round Landscape Maintenance
Custom maintenance plans covering everything from organic lawncare and mulching to hardscapes and horticultural maintenance — keeping your landscape thriving every season.
Ecological Restoration
Native plantings, wetland remediation, and erosion control that restore natural function to degraded landscapes and coastal environments.
Permaculture Design
A process to optimize ecosystem health while providing for our human needs — led by certified permaculture designers who read land as a living system.
Irrigation Systems
Super-efficient drip irrigation systems that deliver water directly to plant roots, using a fraction of the water that conventional sprinklers require.
Fencing and Gates
Custom fencing solutions designed to protect your harvest from wildlife — built to fit the character of your landscape.
Storm-Water Management
We read the land to slow it, spread it, and sink it — redirecting runoff into useful catchment areas and restoring the water cycle on your property.
Fall and Spring Cleanups
Thorough property and leaf cleanups with guidance on repurposing leaves and lawn debris back into the landscape as mulch and compost.
Tree and Shrub Planting and Pruning
We help you select the right edible trees and shrubs for your site and maintain them over time with proper pruning for health and harvest.
Home Composting Solutions
Custom composting systems designed to maximize the use of kitchen food scraps and garden waste, closing the loop on your organic material.
Four Season Food Production
Extend your growing season year-round using cold frames, low tunnels, and row cover — producing fresh food even through the coldest months.
