Transform your lawn into a thriving ecological landscape—from small "pocket prairies" to entire yards. Whether you're tackling a turf hillside with erosion issues or reimagining your whole property, lawn conversions offer beauty and environmental benefits.
Conversions typically don't require a full landscape design - just a customized plant palette and sketch tailored to your space. When installed by The Rooted Archer, your site will be intuitively designed on-site based on experience, site conditions, and your agreed-upon plant selection.
