Overview

Well Grounded is an eco-friendly gardening company providing garden design, installation and maintenance services to Peterborough and the surrounding area. We pride ourselves on our plant knowledge, creative designs, and ecologically minded approach. Well Grounded is owned and operated by long time gardener and farmer Kollene Drummond.

In the gardens we design and maintain, we focus on plants that make sense for the location, on healthy pruning techniques, on preserving and creating habitat for other species, on building healthy soils, and on only using natural fertilizers and pesticides. We also love incorporating edible species into ornamental gardens and helping clients establish and maintain veggie and fruit gardens.

What this might look like in your garden includes practices such as leaving the leaves to decompose, leaving perennial stalks standing over the winter to provide habitat for beneficial insects and shelter the crowns of plants, avoiding the use of plastic landscape fabrics and dyed mulches, and using natural soil builders like leaves, straw, mulch and composts. This also looks like making sure we select appropriate plants for your soil and light conditions.

Well Grounded is delighted to have the opportunity to create and maintain beautiful, comfortable, and healthy gardens for the Peterborough area.
