Helping Brentwood gardens thrive with care rooted in local knowledge.
Gardening with Brentwood’s Natural Landscape
Set between the Exeter River and Brentwood Town Forest, this inland Seacoast town offers a mix of sandy loam soils and clay-rich pockets. We understand how those soil types behave through the seasons — drying quickly in summer and holding moisture in early spring. Our gardening approach keeps soil balanced, plants strong, and gardens low-maintenance but beautiful.
Town Office: 1 Dalton Road, Brentwood, NH 03833
USDA Hardiness Zone: 6a
The Brentwood Transfer Station on Middle Road accepts yard waste and provides access to composting materials, which we often recommend as part of our soil renewal program. We also stay aligned with best gardening practices from the University of New Hampshire Cooperative Extension, ensuring your garden gets the care that suits our local environment.
Our Gardening Services in Brentwood
Seasonal Clean-Ups
We prepare your beds for each season — clearing debris, cutting back perennials, cleaning edges, and freshening mulch. In spring we focus on new growth; in fall we protect roots and tidy up for winter.
Weeding & Bed Care
We hand-weed garden beds carefully and refresh edges to keep a clean, well-defined look. Regular weeding prevents unwanted plants from competing with your flowers and shrubs.
Pruning & Shrub Care
We prune flowering shrubs, perennials, and small trees at the proper times for plant health and next year’s blooms. Our pruning encourages balanced shape and strong growth.
Mulching & Soil Improvement
We use organic mulch and locally sourced compost to build healthier soil. Mulching keeps moisture in, moderates temperature, and suppresses weeds naturally.
Garden Design & Planting
We design and install gardens suited to Brentwood’s landscape — from sunny meadow-style plantings to shady woodland edges. We choose perennials and shrubs that perform well in our Zone 6a climate.
Plants That Flourish in Brentwood Gardens
Our gardeners choose hardy, low-maintenance plants suited to Brentwood’s soils and weather:
Hydrangeas for summer and fall color
Rugosa roses for strength and coastal tolerance
Lilacs and rhododendrons for spring fragrance
Coneflowers and daylilies for long summer bloom
Ornamental grasses for movement and winter texture
Bee balm and native asters to attract pollinators
We plant with attention to sunlight, soil moisture, and seasonal balance so your garden stays lively and healthy all year.
