River’s Bend Design LLC is entering its 23rd year as one of the first organic landscaping companies in Vermont. Founder/owner, Sarah Holland, was a graduate of the first NOFA-accreditated Organic Land Care course in 2001 and has conscientiously promoted and provided mentorship in organic/ ecological landscaping, design and plant selection practices throughout Northern Vermont since. The business has developed a long-term client list and provides services throughout the year, starting with a late winter Fruit Tree Pruning Program and seasonal maintenance through mid November. Design/install services are requested consistently from the pool of maintenance clients but also reliably through word-of-mouth and the website (www.rbdesignvt.com). River’s Bend Design is known for innovative and ecological design including roof gardens, edible landscapes, water and rain gardens all of which feature attention to soil testing and native plant selection. The business proudly provides competitive wages and a positive work atmosphere. Most crew members return year to year for the mentorship and professional development opportunity. This is a turn-key company which will enthusiastically provide transitional support.
