How Wilder Works
A clear starting point—and a thoughtful path forward.
Guiding you with clarity
The goal isn’t to do everything at once. It’s to do the right things, in the right order.
Instead of asking you to choose from a menu of services or jump into a major project, Wilder begins with clarity, through our Yard Wellness Check. From there, we figure out the next right step.
The Wilder Path
1. Yard Wellness Check
Together, we’ll identify:
What’s working
Where the biggest opportunities are
Which small changes will matter most
Then we’ll recommend one of three paths.
For adding new planting areas to open or underused space using a curated, designer-led plan adapted to your yard.
For editing, refining, or rebalancing existing landscapes through on-site, in-the-field design.
Professional Referral
For project needs that fall outside Wilder’s scope—such as a complete landscape redesign—we’ll help connect you with the professional best suited to the job.
2. Design Work
We design your next step—either applying an Adaptive Planting Design to your yard or planning a Field Design Refresh on-site.
3. Implementation
Confidently implement your design with our guidance.
Watch your new plants grow in, and delight in the new life that makes its home in your yard!
4. Join the Movement
Many Wilder clients choose to:
Get their landscape certified as a Wildlife Habitat by the National Wildlife Federation.
Join the Homegrown National Park Map.
This step is optional—and we can help.
