Rain Garden – Hampden Lane Residence

Fine Earth Landscape, Inc.

Rain gardens are a vital tool in sustainable landscaping, designed to capture, filter, and absorb stormwater runoff while providing a habitat for pollinators and other wildlife. Fine Earth Landscape, Inc.’s Hampden Lane Residence exemplifies this approach, transforming a residential space into a beautiful, functional, and eco-friendly solution for managing rainwater. By integrating native plantings and innovative water management techniques, this project showcases how sustainability and aesthetic appeal can go hand in hand.

Conservation Landscape – From Pool to Pollinators

Backyard Bounty

The From Pool to Pollinators project by Backyard Bounty is a shining example of conservation landscaping in action. What was once a traditional swimming pool has been reimagined into a thriving, biodiverse habitat rich with native plantings that prevent erosion, slow stormwater runoff, and support essential pollinators. This transformation not only restores ecological balance but also serves as an inspiring model for sustainable land use and biodiversity preservation.

Join us in celebrating these outstanding projects at the 2025 LCA Sustainability Symposium in March. These winners exemplify how thoughtful, sustainable design can create lasting environmental impact while enhancing the beauty and function of our landscapes.
