JFNew offers complete design, planting, seeding, and management services for native prairie, wetland, and woodland installations. These professional services can be provided for large or small projects throughout the Midwest. We also offer site management services such as controlled burning, erosion control, and exotic species control.
For those of you who are more hands-on, we have prepared the following general recommendations. Please note that the specific characteristics of each site play a role in how these general techniques are implemented. Please give us a call and consult with our experts before you start your installation. It could save you a great deal of time, frustration, and money.
Restoring native plant communities and creating attractive, dynamic landscapes is a challenging, fun pursuit. However, to successfully achieve your project's goals, many variables must be understood and considered. The choices and decision that you make at the planning stage will ultimately determine the outcome of your restoration or landscaping project.
Soil conditions (porosity, salinity, pH, type and compaction), light quality and length, the growth requirements of the selected species, the topography of the project site and the appropriate installation methods for the project materials are some of the variables that must be taken into account.
