About us

At FYGN (For Your Gardens' Needs), our values are rooted in professionalism, responsiveness, and courtesy. With over 25 years of experience serving Marin and San Francisco, we are dedicated to creating sustainable, water-efficient landscapes that enhance outdoor living spaces while respecting the natural environment. Our expertise in water-delivery systems ensures that gardens receive the hydration they need while minimizing runoff and waste. More than just landscapers, we see ourselves as stewards of the land, committed to thoughtful, ecologically sound solutions that support the health of both our clients’ gardens and the planet. Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. We prioritize organic alternatives over chemical fertilizers and pesticides, ensuring that your garden is a safe, toxin-free space where you can walk barefoot with peace of mind. With a deep understanding of the Bay Area’s Mediterranean climate, we design landscapes that thrive through seasonal changes, reducing water waste while maximizing beauty and longevity. Supporting local nurseries, composting green waste back into the soil, and participating in the Marin Green Business Program are just a few ways we uphold our commitment to environmentally responsible landscaping. At FYGN, we don’t just build gardens—we cultivate lasting, regenerative landscapes that bring joy and connection to nature.

Bret is extremely responsive and engaging.  We found a time that worked for a consultation and he arrived on schedule and spent an hour looking over the property and making suggestions.  He brings a designer's eye to all aspects of the work, and explained his company's philosophy and process thoroughly.  He gave us options for a full job bid or hourly rates, and applied no pressure at all, and promised to work with us to keep costs as low as possible.  When work commenced, Bret and his crew were on time and friendly, and they did a terrific job -- property looked better than it did when we bought the house.  We will definitely be working with him on a regular basis for maintenance, and we plan to contract him for a significant redesign of our front yard.  Might cost a touch more than one of the big corporate outfits but worth every penny -- great guy, good sense of humor, great crew, and terrific quality.  Can't go wrong here!

The project went smoothly and professionally without a hitch. The stump removal took only few hours and the planting almost the same. Everything was professionally done and cleaned up afterwards. Bret even came by to check on the job several times during the process. These guys are the best!

He wasn't very thorough with his explanation, and his price way too high to do business with them.

"We strive to get as complete a picture of every project or maintenance program that we estimate. Part of that process is visiting the location, determining a budget and applying creative solutions to meet those budgets. We take pride in our organic, bay friendly processes that are economical but not always the least expensive."

He was really reluctant to give me an estimate and he chose not to take the project on.  I was taken aback by my experience.  At that time, the site indicated that there was a senior discount, but when I spoke to him about it he said that he wasn’t aware of that.  I thought that was pretty bogus.  Other companies were very willing to give me an estimate.

"Unfortunately when we set up our Angie's List account we made a mistake in the configuration. We are committed to bringing the most value to our clients as possible. This includes letting them know when we might not be a good fit for their gardens needs."

The FYGN team was extremely professional in the way that they worked with us in planning, scheduling, and executing the work. This included clear communications with us prior to the process in order to ensure that the work plan aligned with our goals and appropriately set our expectations. They were also exceptional at cleaning up debris left over from the work process.

While there was a fair price, the quality of the work was exceptional! The amount of cleanup was massive: it took them 4 to 5 hours. This work was done while I was out of town and only my wife could monitor their work. What was pleasantly surprising was their attention to detail. You do not have to "micro-manage" these people. They know what needs to be done, they do it, plus a little extra. I would definitely use them again, and again.
