Northeast Front Yard
Slope Solutions
This NE Minneapolis project has evolved over a number of years into a perfect example of our front yard solutions. The first installation in 2015 included a paver walkway around the side of the house and seating area with flagstone inset in the front yard. The next phases of the project addressed the “slope issue”. Between 2019 & 2022, the turf that had become difficult to maintain, was removed from the slope and replaced with a matrix of low maintenance perennials and boulder outcroppings.
