Testimonials
Calla Evans
"East River Gardens took on our unruly side yard when others said “no way!” and we couldn’t be happier with the results! Robin and her team were professional, on time and responsive. They worked with us to come up with a plan, completely redid our yard, removing some very well established buttercup and provided us with a useable space until we can lay down sod in the new year. All our neighbours said how fast and amazing their work was and that the crew seemed like they really enjoyed working together. Robin was also compassionate and non-judgmental when I had to admit that illness has prevented me from staying on top of the yard maintenance. We can’t wait to work with East River in the new year to make our yard the yard of our dreams!"
Michelle Pereira
"Robin and her team are a dream to work with and I'm so lucky to have found them. My garden, both front and back, was in dire need of maintenance and a revamp. So far, the work has been exceptional and I look forward to working with them on the evolution of my new space. All communication with Robin has been prompt and very clear. The work carried out so far has been performed on time and I am super happy with the results. Robin listens to my ideas and provides feedback and suggestions....exactly what you want from a landscaping company."
Bob Elner
"I spent months searching for a team of qualified horticulturalists to tend to my late wife's front garden in Vancouver .. both as a tribute to her memory and a service to myself. Previous landscape companies had proved expensive and humdrum so finding Robin's team has been a game-changer. They have not only enhanced the fundamental productivity and beauty of the garden but introduced novel design concepts/plants that turn heads. In sum, a dedicated, hard working team of professionals who are passionate about plants ... I count myself fortunate in being a client."
