Expert Response
Landscape professionals typically have a degree in landscape design
or a related area, or are licensed as a landscape architect. Some garden
centers offer full service landscape design, implementation and
maintenance services.
Homeowners can find firms by searching the Minnesota Nursery and Landscape Association website.
Use the search function to find the type of help you are looking for in
your geographical location—for example, "landscape designer St. Paul,
MN".
Word-of-mouth is also a very good way to find a landscape
professional. When you see a landscape you love, ask the homeowner for a
recommendation.
I suggest first of all, that you check with your locally owned garden center for referrals. Most will have people they work with. Sometimes some of their employees also do this as an additional job.
