He has really fixed up my front garden and now it isn't an eyesore. He worked with us to choose plants that we wanted and that would work well for our yard's specific environment. We greatly appreciate it.

About Dirt Tamers - Wholistic Gardening
After decades of gardening in my own yard, I’d love to bring that experience to yours. My goal would be to help create your dream gardens that you can’t wait to step into and enjoy. I focus on healthy soil, thoughtful plant selection, and practical maintenance plans so your gardens look great season after season. I prefer to work on small rowhouse, townhouse, single-family, and condo patio projects—often with tricky shade and soil conditions. With experience in gardening and garden design, whether it’s growing flowers, food, or a tapestry of greenery, I bring a careful, personal approach to every yard. If that sounds like the kind of garden care you’re looking for, I’d be happy to talk about your space and what you would like to grow.

Dirt Tamers (Bill) operated on the abundance mentality. Underpromise and overdeliver. He listened to my asks and delivered on every one of them. He also made recommendations for tools that would make maintenance easier for me. My raised beds are beautiful now.
We moved into a townhome and small patch of yard that needed to be revampled. Bill came in for a initial consult and was so thoughtful about his recommendations based on my needs for the space. He is extremely knowledgeable and talented at gardening! He was punctual, responsive, and did the work in one day! Highly recommend.
Bill came out to discuss the work I wanted done. He was very knowledgeable about landscaping, suggested various plants and sent me a link so I could see what different ones looked like. As promised, he arrived on schedule, removed all the old stuff, cleaned the flower bed, planted and watered the new perennials. I plan to contact him again in the spring to discuss enhancing my garden with more plants. I highly recommend Dirt Tamers.
He went above and beyond to work around my crazy schedule. Two peach and two apple trees were planted perfectly, fertilizer added to soil and mulched carefully. He was extremely knowledgeable and gave me advice and product information to handle other issues in my vegetable gardens. Best of all, he said I could send questions as they arise. I will never hire anyone else for gardening or landscaping work! 100% professional and very nice to boot!
Bill was a fantastic find, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to start or refresh a garden. His communication, ability to listen, and thoughtful recommendations made the entire process smooth and collaborative. From our first conversation through the completion of the project, Bill was professional, responsive, and easy to work with. He took the time to understand our goals and offered practical suggestions that improved the final results in our DC home. Thanks, Bill!
What a difference calling a pro can make! This experience was full service! Bill from Dirt Tamers is a truly talented and knowledgeable gardener! I now know the difference between and gardener and landscaper! We told him our vision and her more than delivered. He knew the plants that would thrive in our garden and even suggested plants we never heard of. We have several projects that we can’t wait for Bill to complete! Great value, full knowledge, professional, and extremely friendly! Part 1 complete! Looking forward to the next phase!
Bill was the right person for my job. He was knowledgeable and easy to work with. He got the job done and taught me a lot about using native plants and enhancing the soil.
Bill was absolutely fantastic! Starting with our consult, I felt like Jim was such an asset! He was so helpful to bounce ideas off of and really gave such helpful advice! They knocked out removing multiple wild shrubs, debris from an old contractor and helped me regrade parts of my yard. I can’t wait to work together with him on our next stage of the project!
I appreciated the very quick response I received from Dirt Tamers. Ben was very knowledgeable and took the time to thoroughly explain options and recommendations. I’m looking forward to working with Ben and Dirt Tamers!
I had an amazing experience with Bill. He provided updates during the project and pictures after he completed it. He worked within my budget. I would definitely use him again.
Bill was super responsive and has extensive experience. I really enjoyed learning from him and our front lawn looks wonderful now. I would highly recommend him.
Dirt tamers is an excellent choice for landscaping. They were responsive and provided exceptional work to our yard. Would highly recommend and will be using them again in the future.
Bill and his team were amazing. They worked with me through the design, planning, and implementation phases to truly realize my aesthetic. Their communication was timely and the project was completed sooner than expected. Bill’s expertise provided great options throughout the project. I highly recommend their services.
Dirt Tamers was timely in their response to my inquiry and both punctual and professional when he met me on site to discuss my project.
We had such a wonderful experience getting a quote from Bill. Even though we’re not quite ready to move forward with the project, I felt compelled to leave a review because of how kind, thoughtful, and generous they were with their time. They walked us through ideas, answered all of our questions with patience, and clearly care deeply about their work and their clients. It’s rare to meet someone who shows that level of professionalism and graciousness even at the estimate stage. When we’re ready to move forward, they will absolutely be at the top of our list.
Bill is very knowledgeable, professional and does excellent work. Easy to communicate with and listens, able to collaborate with what my husband and I wanted.
Can’t say enough good things. Ben came out to assess the area we wanted addressed and gave us myriad options based on light exposure and what we were looking for. We went forward with the install and they did a wonderful job. We are incredibly pleased with the results
Outstanding. Took my thoughts and turned them into a reality that I could not imagine
From his communication to the time he dedicated to our garden, Bill was great. He really took his time understanding what we wanted and picked the right plants to match. He dedicated so much time and care to set everything up for us - and taught us what we needed to know to have our garden thrive. Would hire him again in a heartbeat!
