Our experience in working with Barbara Safranek simply could not have been more positive.

We initially contracted with Barb to come out and just give us a 1-hour consultation on our yard. We had never done anything "professional" in our yard before so really had no idea where to start or what to expect. We weren't even specifically looking for a makeover, just ideas on what was possible. After living in our home for 18 years it had become impossible for us to "see the forest for the trees", we were so unable to get outside the box and see possibilities beyond what we had looked at for 18 years.

Barb gave us that vision. She walked into our yard and the ideas started flowing out of her. She was a wealth of knowledge and creativity, and ultimately her enthusiam and expertise convinced us to hire her for a full-on landscape re-design. Partnering with Greenscape as our landscape contractor proved the perfect complement to her design process.

One aspect of the design process we particularly appreciated was never feeling like we were being upsold on anything or pressured to install any features that would not have been appropriate for our neighborhood or the age and design of our house. That was important to us, to keep the new landscape in check with the overall feel of our neighborhood and home. I've seen that before, where landscapes completely overwhelm and overpower the home they belong to, and wind up looking out of place. That didn't happen here.

Our newly transformed garden is the oasis we never knew it could be. Without Barb's expertise it could never have happened. We cannot be more pleased with the end result, and the process itself in getting there was a delight as well.

Thank you, Barb, for making our garden dreams come true!
