About Michal

Michal in Open Space  Colorful Fence Garden

 

A passionate horticulturalist for over thirty years, I’ve been creating gardens for family and friends wherever I’ve lived in the Bay Area. I studied at Merritt College in Oakland, Ca, where I earned degrees in Landscape Horticulture, Architecture & Design in 2010. Since then, I have created gardens for dozens of clients in the East Bay, partnering with talented design construction companies like Indian Rock Landscapes, on many projects.

As your garden design consultant, I will:

  • Give you a fresh perspective on what your outdoor space can be 
  • Share design concepts that will help you imagine being in the space
  • Introduce you to new plants that grow well, and look great together
  • Create a garden design that delights, fits your life style, and enhances your space


I continue to learn and find community as a member of the Calfornia Native Plant Society, a friend of the East Bay Regional Park at Tilden and at local seminars at Strybing Garden in SF and UC Berkeley. I have participated in EBMUD and ContraCosta Water District programs to turn water-thirsty lawns into pollinator-friendly, drought tolerant gardens.
