Sustainable Yard Care Tailored to Every Season

At A Yard & A Half Landscaping Cooperative, we believe seasonal services should adapt to your yard’s changing needs—without sacrificing sustainability. Our services evolve with the natural cycles of your property and your goals, offering clean-ups, pruning, organic lawn care, and winter preparation that reflect both ecological values and aesthetic preferences.
Whether you want a crisp, manicured look or a more natural, wildlife-friendly approach, we’ll create a seasonal care plan that keeps your landscape beautiful and healthy, year-round.

Spring & Fall Clean-Ups With Purpose

Our customizable clean-up services prepare your garden for the growing season or tuck it in for winter—on your terms. We remove debris, cut back dead growth, edge garden beds, and assess plant health with care and precision.

Want a polished finish? We’ll clear every leaf. Prefer a conservation-minded approach? We’ll leave organic matter that shelters pollinators, enriches your soil, and supports biodiversity.

We use only electric-powered tools, minimizing emissions and noise pollution while caring for your landscape and your community.

Seasonal Services

We provide expert pruning designed to support both plant health and ecological balance.
Our crews are trained in species-specific pruning techniques that promote growth, enhance structure, and reduce disease—while avoiding disruption to nesting wildlife or active pollinators. Whether you're shaping ornamental shrubs, cutting back perennials, or caring for fruit trees, we prune with intention and timing that supports long-term plant vitality.

Winter Preparation the Natural Way

Our winterization services are customized to your goals and your landscape. We can
  • Cut back perennials and wrap sensitive shrubs for protection
  • Leave seed heads and stems for birds and overwintering insects
  • Apply organic mulch to insulate roots and feed soil health
This approach protects your plants and supports habitat through the cold months—without over-clearing or disrupting natural systems.

Organic Lawn Fertilization

We offer fully organic lawn treatments that build soil health, improve turf resilience, and support pollinators—all without synthetic chemicals. Our fertilization schedules align with natural growth cycles and feature slow-release, non-toxic nutrients that are safe for children, pets, and groundwater.
