project story

Molly, her husband, and her 3 very small children moved into the property this past September. In her words, she is “not a farmer or gardener in the least” and the previous owners really let the landscape go. She read about permaculture and didn’t want to plant anything invasive or harmful and wants to make sure she is improving her land and not deteriorating the soil. Her immediate priorities were to improve the landscape bed and create an orchard. She also wanted to reduce the amount of yard for her husband to mow.

"We are so pleased with this project! It has transformed our outdoor space and we are excited to get more veggies in the beds and watch the new plants grow! We've already placed the grill and fire pit, too, and the kids are thrilled with their new play space. The crew was incredibly kind, professional, respectful, skilled, and fun to be around. Thank you!"

“The guys that Thrive Lot contracted with in Ohio are AMAZING! They're polite, knowledgeable and incredibly hard working! Everything is coming together nicely....and when they're done they'll be taking a drone photograph and walk me through the long-term care and maintenance of my amazing food-producing back yard!”
Douglas R.Ohio
“We have taken many videos of the property but plan to take more as we bet the Spring will be pretty spectacular! Thanks for connecting us with Melissa, she’s been a joy to work with and we are so happy with the installation!”
Connie S.Arkansas
“We are so pleased with the results of our edible oasis. Our daughters love the Kid’s Exploration area along with all of the new plantings on the property which is a big plus! Thank you for the incredible work!”
Mary Ann B.Pennsylvania
“This is amazing! Investing in hiring Brandon through Thrive Lot to create permaculture garden plans saved me 5 years of googling, note taking, and guessing about what I’d like to create on my property. The process has felt completely supported from start to finish as Brandon was able to ask questions that drew out my aspirations and creativity in a way that allowed him to capture them in a plan that is beautiful, functional and feels attainable. I can’t wait to see it come to fruition in the near future!”
Lauren M.Pennsylvania
“My backyard now has not only the beautiful aesthetic look I wanted, but also herbs, veggies, bees, birds and butterflies! Finding Thrive Lot and Mike was perfect, because they care about the planet and living things just like I do and are careful to always support wildlife and nature with no chemicals.”
Anastassia L.Georgia
“We’ll have more fruit, nuts and berries in the next few years than the local grocery might! Working with Thrive Lot and Brandon helped to collaborate on what to plant and get the massive project done on time and budget. I’m looking forward to continuing to grow my food production on this beautiful land!”
Paula M.Pennsylvania
"I’m probably the most emotional client y’all have ever had but the day we spent yesterday filled my soul; the kids and I felt seen. Cherished. For holding these values that no one else values. Elli was so excited to show off her knowledge of plant and animal systems. She asked such good questions and instead of scorn or eye rolls, this crew just put her to work and talked with her like a person. They were a perfect match for us."
