Ashley Farrell Landscape Design

We are impressed by the professional team that did a fantastic job in our backyard and entryway. Impeccable, timely, great advise and fabulous craftmanship. Great job!!!

The Ashley Farrell Landscape Design (AFLD) team worked to transform all components of our front and back yards to create the environment we have always wanted. They are a hard-working team and were flexible and willing to work through any issues as the project evolved/changed. AFLD office coordinator, Ellen, was a pleasure to work with as she handles all the office logistics. We’ve received many compliments from neighbors and people passing by. AFLD helped us achieve the yard design we’ve always wanted.

Ashley and Ellen worked with us to create a more usable and aesthetically pleasing back yard. What I especially liked was that they didn't recommend ripping everything out, but really listened to us and utilized certain existing features and plants and created a plan with our list of priorities and budget in mind. Their crew was always prompt and friendly, and they cleaned up the area after each day of work. Minor changes to the plan as the project progressed were accommodated with no problem. Ashley provided regular supervision of the job and was always accessible to us. I was very happy with her choice of plants as they are appropriate to our climate. The project was completed within the timeframe that was given to us. I highly recommend Ashley Farrell Landscape Design.

Ashley Farrell Landscape Design did an incredible job transforming our front and back yards. AFLD worked with us and listened well to what we were after, then came up with excellent designs for the yards. AFLD's crew was organized and skilled. They came and worked incredibly hard for about three weeks and got the whole job done. The plant selection is excellent. Along the way, Ashley and Ellen were easy to connect with and responsive. We're really happy with the way it all came out.

Ms. Ferrell and her team did a landscaping project in my back yard to finalize the back yard. She had previously done a project in our front yard which is the envy of the neighborhood. The plants are well placed and the stone work is excellent which transformed our front and back yard to places of serenity. Neighbors who walk by the house are constantly saying "Oh, I love what you did. It is so beautiful and inviting." The back yard project, as in the front yard, was on time, on budget and looks great. Ashley was personally involved and planing plants, giving suggestions for care of the plants and genuinely concerned about the look and how well the plants would do. My wife and I love our yard.

Our front yard makeover is miraculous!! Just ask our neighbors!! Ashley Farrell Landscape Design turned a bleak front yard with dead grass and one lonely tree into our "magical place." For years I have wanted to redesign the ugly cement walkway to our front door. Ashley understood my vision for our front yard and, taking my hand-drawn landscape plan, worked to create beautiful flagstone walkways, steps, and paths, adding drought tolerant trees, bushes, and flowering plants with a variety of colors and textures that attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Ashley's artistic vision is indeed wondrous and she made my dreams for a new front yard come true! Ashley Farrell was highly recommended by a neighbor and we loved his front garden for its color and design. We were given a list of properties to go see and were extremely impressed with the size and scale of the various landscape projects Ashley and her team had designed and completed. Every step of the landscape construction, Ashley was available to us and was directly involved with the work in progress, even working alongside her crew. My husband and I could not be happier with our lovely front yard!! We highly recommend Ashley and her team to anyone who wants to change their yard into a paradise. Ashley Farrell Landscape Design made my dream garden a reality!! Anne & George

Ashley and team are brilliant! We love everything she did, only wish we’d found her earlier. Finally made our house have curb appeal!!

Ashley and her team did a brilliant job to transform our tired back yard into a beautiful oasis of calm. Ashley listed carefully and patiently to understand our requirements and executed a fantastic job on time and on budget. With the help of Mel and Brian they also managed to track down old bricks and laid them to create a stunning walkway. We have received lots of compliments on our back garden and its only just starting to grow. Cannot recommend Ashley and her team enough.

Ashley and her team did an outstanding job transforming our backyard and pool deck into a great outdoor space that we will enjoy for many years to come. Ashley provided very helpful input on options for us that matched our aesthetic goals and budget, and her crew worked hard and with attention to detail to make sure everything met or exceeded our expectations. Overall a very positive experience with Ashley and her team and we would highly recommend her for a project of any size or complexity.

We hired Ashley Farrell to hardscape and landscape our small yard, including irrigation. Ashley and her team were professional and thorough from the moment she came to view our home to completion of the project. Her design incorporated all of our requests while remaining within our budget. We were very impressed by the quality of the materials she suggested for us. She has a keen eye for matching the aesthetics of a property with outdoor spaces. She and her team were very responsive, and still are to this day if we have a question. Now we have a beautiful and functional yard that our family and friends can enjoy.

Ashley and her team created a beautiful backyard paradise for our Mesa home. Ashley is a force of nature and will confidently and thoughtfully guide you through the design and execution process. There is a high level of professionalism, attention to detail, and clear communication in all aspects of the job. From stunning hand chipped stones for our fireplace to perfectly placed hammock poles for the kids to the whimsical stream drainage incorporating all our favorite things, I couldn't be happier. Just call her, and in a few short months you too will be enjoying your garden paradise.

I perused the internet looking for a landscape designer. I landed on Ashley and am so glad that I decided to contact her. I had a very small project but after listening to my rather OCD requirements, Ashley incorporated them into her own great ideas. She took me to the nursery so we could pick out plants together and even though I had asked if the job could be completed in about 4 days, the job was completed in one. Ashley worked, her crew worked, I worked at playing with her incredible dog, Zuma and in no time, all was finished. I would absolutely recommend Ashley for any size landscape project. She is professional, creative, friendly, reasonably priced and quick to complete a job. Call her. Have her come out for an estimate. You will be very happy you did.

Ashley and her team made our backyard dreams come true! My husband and I are usually the ones who do all of the home improvement jobs inside and outside our house. We knew that the backyard was way out of our league. I heard of Ashley through a friend and decided to call her. Ashley and her team were quick to make a house visit, and together we created a plan that fit our vision and our budget. Once our project got started, Ashley's team was always on time, very professional and were perfectionists in their work. Throughout the entire process, Ashley made herself available if we had any concerns or wanted to change part of the plan. When people come to our house they can't believe that our once lawn filled backyard was able to be transformed into a zen oasis. I would recommend Ashley and her team to anyone!

Ashley is creative and smart. able to stick to a budget and give a wonderful result.vher team is super polite and eager to please. We are sooooo happy

Could not be happier! She was awesome. After dealing many landscape architects, she was one that actually knew what works, what does not, what is a waste of money, fabulous ideas, and most importantly she actually does the work, versus many others who just daydream about how it should be. We constantly, daily, have people comment on how great it looks. Bottom line is hire her and pay her, very impressed by her, you will not be disappointed and will realize what I mean.

It is hard to put into words the transformation that Ashley and her incredible team did to my backyard. It is amazing !!! It proved that when the Team Works the Dream Works. Ashley works with you on your vision and does it with such humility one forgets how gifted she is. She is a true professional and goes the EXTRA mile to make things happen. Her follow up and follow through are excellent. I consider her a new friend and will recommend her to any of my friends.

Ashley and her team of skilled, professional landscapers completely replaced our entire front (corner lot) landscape and hardscape. Ashley did all of the design work, coming up with the major design elements but also incorporating our own ideas and personal preferences. She was directly involved every step of the way; working alongside her crew keeps her intimately involved and enables her to execute her implementation plan quickly, accurately, and efficiently. We considered a half dozen different landscape professionals, but chose her due to her design ideas, flexibility, and professional crew as well as competitive pricing. Don't waste your money on a landscape architect either, Ashley does the design work free of charge so you can incorporate your own ideas and envision the result before you commit your resources. We highly recommend her for any landscaping project of any size and scale!

I so much appreciated the way in which Ashley and the rest of her crew worked with us throughout this job. Given the scale (small) and the budget (also somewhat small) we had for this project, I was conscious throughout that another landscape design professional might have been less attentive or would simply not have been interested in negotiating the scope and design of this job. On the contrary, Ashley is incredibly responsive and obviously willing to accommodate the needs of individual clients. We will recommend her far and wide!

Ashley provided a comprehensive landscape project design, and associated suggested options for our front yard project. We selected her design suggestions, and were amazed at how quickly and professionally the project was completed to our complete satisfaction in a very timely manner. I am most impressed by Ashley's work quality capability (our number #1 priority) to complete all associated tasks (including pathway changes and yard and plumbing & irrigation requirements). We are now in the process of working with Ashley to complete the remainder of our property landscape requirements and are looking forward to as good as outcome as Ashley has delivered so far. As a 100% satisfied customer, and based upon my first hand experience, I fully recommend and endorse Ashley for your complete landscape needs!

I can't recommend Ashley Farrell enough. She has an artist's design eye, communicates clearly, is highly responsible and works alongside her crew every day. Unlike many landscape contractors, she gets the job done quickly and professionally. Working with your own ideas and input, she creates a beautiful, natural environment that makes you never want to leave home. She and her crew are all fantastic.

We hired Ashley Farrell Landscape Design to design and landscape the majority of our front yard and the entire back yard. She is a true professional, from the first meeting to the completion of the project. She took the time to answer our questions, and stage the project in a way that met our budgetary and timing needs. The work is a combination of hardscape and low-water use plants and it is beautiful! She has a creative mind and a heart for customer service!

We recently had our front and back yards landscaped by ashley farrell design. Seldom when you undertake a big project do you have perfection. We did. The job Ashley and her crew, Eric and Arturo did was outstanding. They put their heart and soul into their work. Ashley's knowledge and designs were amazing. Ashley and her crew gave and accepted suggestions. We are new to Santa Barbara from Wisconsin. We had many questions and needed to learn California gardening as it is very different from Wisconsin. They were totally patient with us and explained clearly. Ashley and Eric had fun ideas for placements of plants and ornaments etc. Arturo taught me how to plant California style! These are fine people. In a way we were sorry when the project was completed as we had so much fun. We love our garden ! We highly recommend them !

Ashley is fantastic at what she does and in such a short amount of time. She is always available to source out a less expensive way to get the job done but still looking awesome! She goes beyond landscape design and pulls in the necessary players to help the property look amazing. We are loving our space thanks to her determination and great attitude.

Ashley Farrell Design is outstanding! Ashley gave us a very detailed proposal and designs for a major overhaul of our yard, which was totally overgrown with all sorts of random species of living and dead plants. Ashley did an incredible job of saving and repurposing many of the plants, which felt good from an environmental and budgetary standpoint! Her team is very professional and they all worked incredibly efficiently. It was great fun to come home to so much progress every day. The house now looks exactly like the graphic designs she gave us before the project began. It's beautiful!!

We had a challenging garden. A dry creek runs through our property. We wanted a design that would landscape stabilize the banks, be appealing and relatively drought tolerant. Ashley was one of several landscape designers we interviewed. With a few minutes of looking at our area she came up with an idea and seemed to have a clear sense of the type of design that would keep the natural look and enhance our property. This plan was not very detailed. It was more of a concept. It was executed in a timely manner with a nice hardworking crew. There are little details such as one step having a rock flower design that were a nice surprise for us. We have recommended Ashley to several of our friends and everyone has been pleased with her work.

Ashley and her crew did an amazing job on our backyard. Super happy with how it turned out. Ashley provided the plan and then executed it beautifully! Highly recommend.

Great company. Crew was awesome and did great work. Very professional and even helped with some other stuff. Give highest recommendation. I look forward to working with them in the future.

Ashley landscaped our front yard in 2014. She was highly recommended to us by a friend and we were so happy to have found her. From the initial contact to the final touch, she was always pleasant, enthusiastic, and easy to work with. She is professional, knowledgeable of plants, environmentally conscious, and has a creative mind. The quality of her work is exceptional. Our front yard ended up with drought resistant plants with amazing colors and texture year round; the stone retaining walls were beautifully built; and fluttering in the neighborhood are monarch butterflies hatched on the milkweeds she planted for us. We enjoy our front yard and get compliments from neighbors and passersby all the time. We would recommend Ashley to anyone who is looking for a top-notch landscape designer.

I cannot say enough good things about Ashley Farrell Design. My husband and I live in a tiny house with a big backyard. The drought and the desire to do more living outdoors inspired us to overhaul our lawn-dominated backyard. I reached out to a local landscape designer who I saw featured in Sunset Magazine. She wouldn't talk to me for less than $50k. We learned about Ashley through a mutual friend. She was so accessible, hands-on and fair in her pricing. I provide a basic snapshot of the plants I liked - and she went to work. My best advice in working with Ashley is just trust in her vision. No computer design program can adequately convey her landscape plan. She (literally) digs in and lets the topography of the space guide her. She's there every day of the process, getting dirty with a big smile on her face - and her team is competent and considerate. Ashley is passionate about nature and the local ecosystem and incorporates those elements into design (we are now obsessed with our monarchs and milkweed). We are so thrilled with the final product that we rarely want to go indoors. Our sloped lawn has been replaced with a diversity of "al fresco rooms" - fire pit, reflection space, stone steps and terraces, orchard - and beautiful plants and trees that surprise us throughout the year with flowers and fruits. More than a year later Ashley continues to check in on our yard and offer advice - and we consider her a friend. She's gone as far as pulling off the side of the road to pull neglected weeds from our front yard (she noticed while driving by) from our front yards. She's THAT invested in her work. Snap her up while you can – Ashley’s work belongs in magazines.

Ashley & her team came & did a complete clean up of my yard. They worked incredibly hard & fast to get the job done! The result was a complete transformation, looks absolutely beautiful & my expectations were more than exceeded! I highly recommend Ashley, she is hard working, extremely knowledgeable & a visionary.

Design, demo and install new landscaping with irrigation. I found Ashley very knowledgable and experienced in her field. Her attention to detail and the ability to provide us a variety of landscape designs were superb! I found Ashley to be professional, dependable and works well with other contractors on the project. I was completely satisfied with Ashley's work and would highly recommend her company for your landscape project.

I highly recommend the services of Ashley Farrell Design for many reasons. The entire staff was a pure pleasure to work with every day and they exceeded my expectations on every level. I received a complete design and estimate of the job description to be completed at my home and was pleasantly surprised that the work was not only finished on time, but within the estimated budget I was given without any hidden costs or unexpected fees. Miss Farrell listened to what I wanted, made some great suggestions, came up with a plan, and coordinated the entire job. She even found me a tile contactor to work on my front porch when I couldn't find someone myself. When the they showed up to begin the yard clean up they offered to also take any other items I needed to dispose of to the local refuse and recycling companies for me as well. The quality of the work and products used were both excellent. At the end of every work day, the workers left everything tidy and always made sure the gates were securely closed so that my Labrador, Lola was safely inside. I will definitely use Ashley Farrell Design services again and would not hesitate to recommend then to anyone. Miss Farrell is knowledgeable about every aspect of her landscaping company from the hardscape to the irrigation to the specific types of plants that thrive in our community, especially in such a sensitive time such as the drought we are currently experiencing. Yet she was still able to make my yard look beautiful while maintaining the new "gold is green" with drought tolerant native plants. Kristin Lawrence-Monroe

I have had the pleasure of working with Ms. Farrell on many projects. I have always found her to be highly motivated, thorough & professional. Additionally, I have referred many projects to Ashley directly with the utmost of confidence. As a professional in the field myself, this is paramount. Her innate creativity truly sets her apart. Looking forward to the next project Ashley! D. Halvorson - Action Tree Care

Ashley visioned and produced a wonderful garden all around my home. She was reasonably priced and a delight to work with. Her staff were knowledgeable and flexible and she was on site frequently doing some of the work herself. I plan to hire her for my next landscaping job.

Ashley and her competent crew did a wonderful job on some recent large scale landscaping projects at our 3 acre house site. From a new fruit and vine orchard, to new privacy hedges, to literally tons of rock retaining wall and stair work she was consistent and attentive to all our needs. Her crew was professional and kind as well. I have and will continue to recommend and commend her fine work.

Ashley was knowledgeable about drought tolerant designs with local plants, and she had good ideas for re-doing my landscape. We drove around to some of her prior jobs to see examples of patio surfaces and flagstone. She had an accurate estimate of the time and expense for my job and she advised me on where we could save money. Ashley was available when I had questions and I felt that she was on site to supervise the job about 2/3 of the time.

Ashley did an amazing job re structuring my property into a drought friendly landscape.She took into account our local drought conditions when she planned my landscape. I heartily recommend her!

Ashely is not only a delightful woman to be around, but she also knows how to transform what we see as wonderful into something beyond magnificent! She creates beauty wherever she goes! Thank you, Ashley for helping us!

Ashley did a beautiful job transforming our yard and garden into a beautiful, welcoming outdoor space. She listened to our ideas and concerns, and had many great, knowledge-based ideas of her own. She and her crew were professional and always showed up when they said they would. The job was completed in a timely fashion, with very few glitches along the way. We love our new garden area; one area flows into the next, the plants are beautiful and drought-tolerant, and it's low-maintenance. We are very happy with Ashley's work and recommend her strongly.

Ashley is a total pro. She's the landscaper for the people - very fair pricing and committed to quality work. She really cares about the work she does and she's very good at it. Plus - she's honest and all of the people that work for her are great as well. Ashley is the best!

Ashley and her team were able to transform our yard into an oasis. She helped us take our scattered ideas and designed a great usable space that will allow us to extend our living spaces outdoors year round. She understood our sensibilities regarding design while also considering what would really work in the space we had. Ashley and her extended team (the 2 Brian's) made the renovation completely stress free.

We used Ashley last Summer. We told her what we liked and the feel we were going for with our backyard remodel/design and she totally blew us away. Everyone that comes to visit raves about our backyard. Would definitely recommend her services.

We lived in our house for 12+ years and were never able to start a landscape project, although we needed to desperately. The backyard area went essentially unused…there simply wasn’t any place to ‘be’. Ashley came in and created a vision for how the space could be LIVED in, enjoyed, and also beautiful to just look at. She got me through the fear of ‘where do I begin’ and ‘what are my options’ without ever making me feel overwhelmed. She and her team are consummate, hands-on professionals. They are proactive when they need to be and equally wonderful listeners who converted our basic ideas into amazing applications. We absolutely love spending time in our garden — and at the outdoor firepit!

She is very talented. Every yard she works on turns into like a beautiful art work in a few months after she finishes, and keeps its shape for years. She is also extremely hard working. She was moving rocks in my pond when she was eight month pregnant - don't recommend it for anyone else but she is so strong and determined that nothing stops her from completing the job 'perfect.'

Ashley Farrell was chosen for our landscape project out of a group of five landscapers that we interviewed. She was the most engaged in our project and her pricing was the fairest out of all of them. Her experience was also a very high factor in our consideration of landscapers. We knew going into this major project that it would be a long term job. We had an acre that had to be made beautiful. First, we had to have everything torn out. Then the hard scape had to done, all new patios, new driveway, retaining walls, remodeled pool etc. Ashley worked as our co-ordinator on everything for us and kept us all sane. Ashley was also the only landscaper that we interviewed that was also hands on. She was there everyday and worked as much or more, with her fabulous crew. Phase two is probably going to start in late winter when she transforms our lower lot into a beautiful 20' X 20' fruit and vegetable garden. All in all we were and are very pleased with Ashley.
