Can anyone recommend a good north-end landscaper/yard person?
I’m embarrassed to admit it, but if I posted a photo of my front yard’s current state on this blog - it’d probably get some nasty comments usually reserved for a townhouse built on top of something like an orphanage.
I accept that I have a yard problem, and isn’t that the first step on the road to recovery, right?
But the harder step is the second one, getting some help, so…I’m looking around for a good landscaper/yard person who could help us clear out these bad boys for us without using chemicals? And wondering if anyone has any good north end recommendations.
We’ve got some landscaping plans already completed but had to put them on hold last year because we needed to repeatedly dig up our front yard to get some drainage work done.
(Does anyone konw a good yard person ready to tackle these front yard beasts?)

I use Casa Latina. You get people that generally work as if they really need the money (and they generally do). I think they charge $15/hour with a 5 hour min, plus drop-off fee.
Thanks for the tip Matt. I just gave ‘em a call to see if they can come by tomorrow. Reading through their web site, it sounds like a really cool organization. http://www.casa-latina.org/
I’d suggest Arthur Lee Jacobsen, distinguished local plant expert, gardener, pruner, landscaper and noted author of “Trees of Seattle”.
If he doesn’t want to tackle this mess he can refer you to someone who will.
See his website, http://www.arthurleej.com or contact him at alj@consultant.com.
Thanks for the tips! Casa Latina worked out really well.
