Services
Sustainable Landscaping
Our sustainable landscaping services create functional outdoor spaces using permaculture principles. We integrate native plants, edible gardens, and rainwater systems to enhance ecological balance. Clients benefit from long-term environmental stewardship and reduced maintenance costs through our regenerative design approach.
Permaculture Design
Custom permaculture designs focus on whole-site water systems and climate change mitigation. We develop food forests, agroforestry systems, and medicinal plant gardens tailored to Pacific Northwest conditions. Our designs maximize biodiversity while creating productive, low-maintenance landscapes for residential and community projects.
Organic Farm Services
NW Bloom Farm provides contract growing of edible perennials and climate-adaptive crops. Our certified organic practices include plant medicine cultivation and pollinator habitat creation. We offer educational workshops and nursery services with a focus on native plant propagation and sustainable food production systems.
Rainwater Management
We implement rain gardens, bioswales, and catchment systems to manage stormwater sustainably. Our designs filter runoff through soil building techniques while creating functional water features. These systems reduce environmental impact and provide reusable water resources for landscape irrigation.
Ecological Education
Our educational programs cover permaculture design, organic gardening, and climate-resilient landscaping. Led by award-winning author Jessi Bloom, we offer consultations, workshops, and speaking engagements that empower individuals and communities to implement sustainable land practices effectively.
