GREAT BLUE CO.
we’re A worker-owned cooperative creating Thriving native landscapes to benefit the humans and wildlife of the Chesapeake
rewild your lawn
We love our city, but sometimes we wish things were a little less neat… a little greener, a little wilder. A space more welcoming not just for our neighbors but also for our less visible co-habitants—the birds! The bees! The monarch butterflies! The eastern eyed elaters! The bee-mimicking robber flies! The snowberry clearwings!
Let us bring a little life back into your yard! We specialize in designing and building a space that is alive, is beautiful, diverse and ever-changing throughout the year. We strive to create landscapes that are constantly evolving, spaces that will surprise and delight you—a native oasis in your yard.
You have nothing to lose but your lawn
core Services
-
We have years of experience installing residential gardens. We strive to create spaces that have a sense of belonging to the surrounding ecosystem, fostering wonder and acting as a wild balm to the drab, grey hellscape of late capitalism.
-
Stormwater gardens collect rainwater—from a roof, driveway, or street—allowing it to soak into the ground and feed a garden. As more and more parking lots and warehouses cover over our wild areas, stormwater gardens are a small but important way to help preserve our natural waterways.
-
The built environment should augment the natural beauty of the landscape. Through the design process, we aim to create the spaces that you will really use. These stones are millions of years old and the lumber was once part of a forest— let’s build something worthy of that legacy!
-
We have experience working with schools, churches, neighborhood associations, and hospitals to implement various types of public projects. We love participating in projects that will be a community resource.
