Beautiful Landscapes that Sustain Life
Native Wildflower Pollinator Gardens
Our Mission
PatchWork Meadows is a Green business, growing and installing native plants for pollinator
habitat. The goal is to convert sections of residential and commercial lawn into beautiful wildflower meadow patches that benefit bees, butterflies, birds and other wildlife.
The idea isn’t to simply plant a garden of pretty flowers, but to choose from a list of plants, well suited for specific site conditions, that have the greatest benefit to pollinators in order to create a patch of Wild Meadow on your property. Your Patch is part of the PatchWork that can allow native pollinators to thrive inside of the ever-increasing human occupation of the landscape. These patches create wildlife corridors through our towns and neighborhoods that allow both residential and migrating populations of pollinators to coexist with us in urban and suburban areas. As our cities and towns continually grow and many of our green spaces fill up with exotic invasive species it is necessary to create habitat for pollinators if we don’t want to lose them, as so many bird, bee and butterfly species are in dramatic decline due to habitat loss.
Luckily, many of the plants that pollinators like best are also attractive to people, so gardening for them is a win-win.
Replace a section of your lawn with a Patch of Wildflowers in order to add beauty and biological diversity to your life and your neighborhood

Lawn Replacement
The guiding principles for conversion of our lawns, which are essentially ecological deserts, into spaces that sustain life have been adopted from Doug Tallamy’s, Bringing Nature Home, How you can sustain wildlife with native plants, 2009.
