Creating natural habitats
THE PURPOSE
The Urban Garden Companion is a multi media urban garden design platform. We love to create customized, low maintenance, eco conscious gardens, incorporating solutions to space restrictions and over development in an urban environment. Wildlife support is at the core of our designs. We offer our blog for self learning and implementation, to entice and encourage the garden artist in you.
The PUSUIT
MORE MORE MORE. We desire to see more flowers, more plants, more greenery grown in and outdoors. Empty lots to become ecological design projects, pollinator friendly planter boxes cultivated outside commercial and residential buildings and creeping vines to stretch along the city walls. Let’s be daring and grow wild in the urban jungle.
"The Urban Gardener Helena brings along with her erudition, up to date eco - news, a breathe of spring and optimism. She encourages her audience of students and more experienced folk to trust nature and let growth happen... in these times, a very wonderful reminder of the life force."

" The Urban Garden Companion, was a fabulous and funny, attentive, and exceptionally knowledgeable host at her recent garden party at the Episcopal Actors Guild. I learned SO MUCH in such a short time...things I didn't even realize I need to know about fair trade, organic gardening, and GMO's to name a few. I left feeling incredible educated about how to determine what is best for the earth and what foods are safe to put into my body. The whole experience was fun, engaging, interactive, and educational in just under 2 hours. I, the ultimate gardening novice, was able to grow my own sunflower sprouts on my windowsill in under a week!! A true testament to the power and expertise that the Urban Garden Companion has to offer." - Kristen
