Stewardship Program
Jessecology Stewardship Program
Guiding Gardens into Sustainable Maturity
Creating an eco-garden with native plants is just the beginning of restoring biodiversity and supporting your local ecosystem. But achieving the full potential of your landscape requires more than installation—it demands ongoing, intentional care. That’s where the Jessecology Stewardship Program steps in.
We offer expert support for the first three critical years (and beyond) to nurture your garden into a vibrant, thriving habitat that flourishes for years to come. Whether you’re hands-on or prefer to leave the hard work to us, our stewardship ensures that your garden is always on the right track.
Why Good Garden Stewardship Matters
- The first three years are critical: This is when plants take root, ecosystems stabilize, and the garden’s character forms.
- Low maintenance ≠ zero maintenance: Even a thoughtfully designed eco-garden needs attention—like weeding, pruning, and plant division—at the right times to stay healthy.
- The right actions, at the right times: Native species thrive when professionals understand the land’s needs and respond appropriately.
Gardens that are properly stewarded not only remain beautiful—they also continue to provide ecological benefits like pollinator support, biodiversity, and wildlife habitat.
What’s Included in Our Stewardship Program
Our program provides everything your garden needs to mature and remain in peak condition.
Core Stewardship Services
- Weeding to control invasive species and maintain plant balance.
- Dividing overgrown plants to prevent overcrowding and promote growth.

Additionally, we may introduce new wildflower seeds and native plants to enhance your garden’s biodiversity.
Our CSA-Inspired Stewardship Model
Think of our Stewardship Program as the gardening world’s version of an organic farm’s Community Supported Agriculture (CSA). By signing up in advance, you secure space on our calendar, ensuring that the right tasks are performed at the right times throughout the year.
- Continuous care: Gardens need attention in every season, from spring planting to winter preparation.
- Investing in the season ahead: Just as CSA members receive vegetables throughout harvest season, stewardship clients enjoy consistent care and flourishing gardens.
- Gratitude through gifts: We love to express our appreciation by sharing gifts from our wildflower farm—a token of thanks for your trust and support.
Designed for Jessecology Clients
Our Stewardship Program is exclusively available for clients who have had Jessecology design and install their landscape. If you’ve worked with us in the past decade, we’d love to help guide your garden into sustainable maturity.
Imagine your mature Jessecology garden, lovingly shaped over time—with fewer weeds, healthier plants, and vibrant blooms. Even if it’s a little overgrown right now, we’ll bring it back to life.
