Reviews for

Orchard Keepers

Ensuring our customers' vision for their property comes to life is our #1 priority. That, and making a healthier planet. They're the same, really...

We LOVE Orchard Keepers! I caretake a large property in Bonny Doon, and just over a year ago we brought them on to help with a major transformation. Since then, they’ve completely revitalized the space—building beautiful raised garden beds, planting tons of new fruit trees and native plants, and designing a killer berry house that actually keeps all the critters out. From day one, their team showed deep knowledge of organic fruit tree care, soil health, and sustainable practices. They helped design a care plan that included thoughtful pruning, soil-building techniques, efficient irrigation, and long-term maintenance—all tailored to our space. Everyone on the crew is professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. The trees are healthier, more productive, and easier to care for thanks to their guidance. If you’re looking for expert orchard care with an organic, earth-friendly approach, Orchard Keepers is the best you’ll find. Highly recommend!

“I can’t begin to express how pleased we are with the first phase of the installation, it’s really very exciting. Just came in from looking at the Edible Edge and things are really starting to flourish!”
