“Pine Bush Lawn to Garden” I 2024

“Pine Bush Lawn to Garden” | 2023

In 2022, the homeowners of this corner lot reached out to Front Stoop to do something different with their yard: they wanted to transform the expansive turf lawn into habitat.

Front Stoop provided a master plan for the entire property, but broke up the transformation into phases, focusing first on the front foundation garden and the side lawn, which would become a Woodland Grove.

Sandy soils set this lot apart, a stone’s throw from the Pine Bush preserve. Plant selections were made carefully, considering the nearby natural area and species that were happiest in the existing conditions.

In 2023 we broke ground, completing the front foundation garden, and beginning the first phase of the Woodland Groves. Subsequent sections of the Groves were completed at the end of 2023, and 2025.
