The Story of grEnz

grEnz was founded nearly 10 years ago, 

with a 'Gaian' belief that is now grEnz's mission:

ecological stewardship

must also yield economic prosperity;

in pursuit of this alignment, we found it.

With those two values aligned

and the path forward thereby clear,

earth can thus be ecologically harmonious AND richly abundant!

grEnz is thrilled to bring this to you.

     * = grEnz integrates this component into the project and subcontracts and oversees much of its performance by a specialist.

     ** =  Same as '*' except that grEnz will also require that the client directly hire a specialist, due to current limitations of our licensure — but it is still seamlessly project-integrable by grEnz, so that you need only implement the steps that grEnz devises to achieve your goals. *Although grEnz can't guarantee any work within the project that we don't actually contract, grEnz can vet contractors to maximize probability of full success. 

() = May be done by grEnz or a specialist,  TBD by your specifications.

"Your Services List is so long!

How do I navigate?"

It is long, yes — please, be excited! 

Every piece of land on which grEnz works is one in which grEnz looks out for needs and opportunities to holistically integrate any and all of these services and will relay these options to you as our client. This is why we highly encourage you to actively engage with your project by hiring grEnz to consult you from the early stages of your project, so that you may have the facts to decide whether these recommendations are worthwhile prior to beginning to invest (further) in your land.

This way, grEnz empowers clients to efficiently move toward a more

holistic and long-term vision for your landscape, without

wasting money on distractions and pricey up-sells by contractors who are primarily interested in short-term exploits that conform to their individual capabilities rather than the land's long-term benefit.​

There also is some overlap between services, and more broadly, doing more at a given time is cost-efficient. In order to achieve long-term, comprehensive, and lasting outcomes for your land, you often need to integrate other steps and/or address other issues. This isn't required where your budget is limited, and though it is optimal there are generally a variety of approaches for you to take. Through the consultation process, grEnz generates viable approaches for the client's context, providing a comprehensive look at the value that could be added as well as some foreseeable liabilities to avoid (in regards development strategy only; nothing is ever completely risk-free!). Consultation allows our clients to plan their project with us and then, should you choose, shop around for the actual build... nonetheless, we're confident you'll also find our build pricing to be the best. It's that in which grEnz prides itself: best quality at the best price.

​

"What types of plants do you use?"

There are a handful of important things to say here! Please read through. For starters:

 grEnz produces many of our own plants —and sells surplus inventory (plus special orders!)— through our in-house, licensed nursery operation. grEnz also is, generally, knowledgeable about the propagation and purchase options for large-quantity, rare, or any other sorts of plant procurement.

To maximize utility, grEnz works somewhat exclusively with nuanced, context-specific combinations native (to the site) and crop (harvestable) plants.

In cropping plants, grEnz seeks to empower clients economically, which, to boot, offsets production demands of a tired industrial agriculture system. 

Conversely, for agricultural contexts, utilizing native plants to obtain ecological services is highly valuable and worthwhile. It is straightforward, high+multi-benefit, and ultra-low-risk. grEnz can inexpensively provide farms with key direction on how to approach this econimically in order to directly optimize your operation's efficiency, with supreme ecological benefit and entrancing aesthetic beauty as prized bonuses to boot.

Regarding the landscape context: 'ornamentals' can readily be supplanted by useful plants, edibles+natives, in essentially every aesthetic context (layout, color scheme, price limit) that we've encountered. Ornamentals comparatively add substantially to overall installation, maintenance, and overall management costs; insist at your own risk!

grEnz will refuse to plant even potentially invasive plants and also genetic competitors (i.e. Japanese Maple where Big Leaf Maple or Box Alder reside).
