## Ecological Maintenance Pricing

Our maintenance program is a year-round partnership - not just lawn mowing. We take a holistic, integrated approach to keeping your landscape healthy and beautiful every season.

**How our maintenance program works:** Moodscapes takes on a limited number of full-service maintenance clients each season. Programs are structured as an annual engagement, with a deposit in February or March and monthly payments through November.

This approach lets us plan proactively for your property - from spring cleanup and planting to summer care, fall cleanup, and everything in between. It also means we can give each client the attention they deserve.

Full-Service Ecological Maintenance

Year-round care including spring & fall cleanups, weekly/bi-weekly visits, organic turf management, planting bed care, and ongoing horticultural consultation.

[Learn More →](https://www.moodscapesdesign.com/ecological-landscape-maintenance-gardening)

$850 - $2,000+/mo

Fine Gardening & Horticultural Care

Detailed, hands-on garden maintenance for clients who want expert-level care for planting beds, perennials, and specimen plants.

Custom estimate

Spring & Fall Cleanups

Seasonal property cleanups for clients who want targeted service outside of a full maintenance program.

Custom estimate

## A Few Things to Know

**

### We work with a limited number of clients.

Moodscapes intentionally keeps our client roster manageable so every property gets the time and attention it deserves. That's how we've operated since 1997.

**

### Every project starts with a conversation.

We don't quote from a price sheet. We get to know your property, your goals, and your budget before recommending anything - so nothing feels like a surprise.

**

### Ecological principles guide everything we do.

We use organic, environmentally sound practices across all of our services - from the products we apply to the plants we select. Your family and the ecosystem both benefit.

**

### Serving six towns.

We work with homeowners in [Belmont](https://www.moodscapesdesign.com/belmont-ma), [Arlington](https://www.moodscapesdesign.com/arlington-ma), [Lexington](https://www.moodscapesdesign.com/lexington-ma), [Watertown](https://www.moodscapesdesign.com/watertown-ma), [Newton](https://www.moodscapesdesign.com/newton-ma), and [Winchester](https://www.moodscapesdesign.com/winchester-ma).
