Gardening Is Self Care
… so grow a
garden you love!
It’s about the magical moment when you dig your hands in the earth and your to-do list melts away. A silent knowing settles in as you re-member your connection with those who have come before. Pollinators, water catchment systems, and soil remediation restore vitality to the land you live on. You resume your place as a synergetic member of a living, breathing, ecosystem where you belong.
Hi, I’m Carly
Seattle’s resident dirt whisperer. I create custom permaculture blueprints that help homeowners bring their dream gardens to life. I’m on a mission to make earth restoration and foodscaping accessible to everyday people. So, I created the Smol Site System, a user-friendly framework which facilitates sustainable gardening solutions for any lifestyle.
Is this you?
“I don’t have an ideal yard.”
Who does?!
During your Compassionate Site Analysis, I come to you and you can show me exactly what we’re working with. Whether your property is shady, rocky, sandy, or teeny tiny, my Smol Systems approach is more than capable of enticing it to grow.
“I’m afraid of going broke on a failed experiment.”
I won’t let you!
I coach my clients on where to spend and where to save. If you follow my guidance, you will be set up for a budget-friendly harvest.
“I have too many ideas!”
Join the club!
The good news: I just need a 15-minute phone call to clarify your ideas and get them clearly organized. Once I visit your site in person, I’ll be able to further optimize your ideas for maximum creativity AND implementability in your design.
“I don’t have any ideas.”
I’d be happy to guide you through a comfortable consultation where we get to the root of your values, desires, and needs. I’ll help you hone in on your best options so you can move forward with inspiration and confidence.
“I worry about upkeep.”
You don’t need to be a barefoot hippy to maintain a Smol System foodscape. I build your design to serve your needs, which include time and energy management. We’ll replicate nature’s self-sustaining systems so your garden can take care of itself with minimal human interference.
“I don’t know where to start.”
Start where you are—and if that’s a big fat question mark, sobeit! Give me a call and in just a few minutes we can find the perfect starting point for you.
Let’s talk!
I create your design with YOU in mind. That includes your vision, location, time, and budget. You will receive a digital and printed design with crystal clear instructions so you know exactly what to do every step along the way.

Food and Medicine are not
two different things:
they are the front and back of one body.
~ Masanobu Fukuoka ~
You can have a homegrown sanctuary that pays homage to your roots, breathes life into your dreams, and makes an environmental impact that nourishes your soul.
Gardens can be
unbelievably personal.
You don’t have to
do it alone.
