Personal, thoughtful gardening for those who need a helping hand. We treat every garden like it's our own — because to us, it is.

Family Roots was born from a simple observation — too many people in our community were struggling to keep up with their gardens. Seniors who once lovingly tended their flower beds, busy families juggling work and life, homeowners whose gardens just needed a little extra attention.
We're Tera and Christa, and we believe everyone deserves a beautiful garden — without the stress, the cost of a big company, or the guilt of letting things go. We bring personal care, real conversation, and honest work to every job.
From a quick tidy-up to a complete garden redesign — no job is too small, and every job gets our full attention.
Trimming, edging, tidying, and seasonal clean-ups. We keep your garden looking its best from spring thaw through fall leaf drop.
Crisp, clean edges along walkways, gardens, and driveways. The finishing detail that makes everything look polished.
Thoughtful garden layouts tailored to your space, sunlight, and lifestyle. We design with your vision in mind.
Regular weeding keeps your gardens healthy and your plants thriving. We pull by hand and take the time to do it right.
New flower beds, shrubs, trees, or fresh grass seed. We help you choose the right plants for your soil.
Proper watering schedules, fertilizer application, and soil health care. We make sure your plants get exactly what they need.
Snow clearing, salt application, winter garden prep, and protective wrapping for delicate plants through the cold months.
Mulching, leaf removal, small tree pruning, raised garden beds, pot planting — if it's in your backyard and it needs doing, we're here for it. No job is too small.
Every garden tells a story. Here are some of the transformations we've been part of.

"My mom is 82 and couldn't keep up with her garden anymore. Tera and Christa come every week and her garden has never looked better. They even chat with her while they work."
"We both work full time and our garden was embarrassing. Family Roots turned it around completely. They designed a beautiful low-maintenance garden and now maintain it for us."
"The big companies wanted a fortune. Tera and Christa gave me a fair price and did better work. My neighbours keep asking who does my garden!"
Tell us about your garden and what you need. We'll take it from there — no pressure, no obligation.
