  Outstanding job. We called and scheduled at the last min and they were able to schedule us into their rotation. We just did not have the time to rake this year. The yard is ready for winter...and done exactly like they described on the initial booking call. We will definitely use them for spring prep too!

  Many thanks to Robert and Tate from Grounded Earth for the fantastic job they did cleaning up, mulching, and preparing my lawn and garden for winter. Grounded Earth has been an absolute godsend throughout this past summer and fall, since my schedule left me little time to tend to my property, and they've taken all the worry out of doing so. They restored my garden after it became thickly overgrown last spring, and kept it in great condition through their bed-maintenance program. The recent mulching job they did is simply beautiful, and truly elevated the space. Thanks to them, my garden and lawn look fabulous!! I and my cat couldn't be happier. I highly recommend Grounded Earth, both for their excellent work and for their eco-oriented practice

  Carl, Tate, wow....Super EXCELLENT work!!! My yard is long, 150 feet, with two yards, upper and lower,quite low. My spouse died, 8 years ago and no one to care for my yard. West Nile Virus encephalitis/meningitis crippled me, so Grounded Earth really saved my property. First Ulrich Faircloth is fair and just as his name indicates. He assessed both yards and was just above another quote I got for only the lower yard. Next, Ulrich is very communicative, prompt, loyal, and thinks outside the box, rare these days! A true farmer, as I was a farmer first part of my life. Next, he is fair and caring about his work crew, and makes certain they are paid fair, and treated with respect. Carl and Tate worked 95 degree swamp thick air, and diligently and efficiently despite extreme temperatures/conditions. They were easy to communicate with. My yard especially the lower had vines, and volunteer trees, and all kinds of invasive weeds, especially the sticky, prickly, burrs, as I live next to the rail road, where everything is like wild MN pasture and woods. So I was worried I could not find a real crew to stick with this job. In fact the worst is all the telephone and power lines in the alley the vines, and I mean 3 inch vines were hanging all over, plus other invasive earth species too. It really was ugly and on top of that, folks volunteered after my spouse died to cover the lower yard in black plastic and all kinds of logs, fencing, and re barr cages from our used to be garden to weigh the plastic down. A nightmare for sure, so hats off to these amazing folks at Grounded Earth. And the number one reason they won me over, is no noise, you don't hear them working with their environmentally great machines, and van. No smell in the air either, and no damage to the Bee's, Bird's, Butterflies' and my cat as Ulrich uses non toxic weed control for those nasty railroad vines/burdock and buckthorn, volunteer sumac, and some black oak thing. ugh. Ulrich knows all of those biological plants, and is an expert at his science to manage with environmental consciousness and getting a yard back. That was my secondary and 'won me over' reason for hiring him. Plus he really went out of his way to understand my widow permanently disabled financial situation too since I live below the poverty line, for real. And I am not a lazy person either, I work part time as a hospice Chaplain! Before going onto disability I worked for my Community 25 years Hampden Park Coop, and St Anthony Park Block Nurse program, 15 years as the Cook, and the Skilled nursing home too. I like working for community companies and supporting them wholeheartedly. At age 63 I really needed help, so Ulrich Faircloth, and Grounded Earth team, Hat's off again!

  Be aware that this is a subscription service. If you wish to use them to do a bit of spot yard or gardening work, you may find yourself in a long term subscription with a cancellation policy that you might think is a bit draconian. In this they are similar to a lot of other subscription services that like to assume you want to stay subscribed. I also thought there was a bit too much emphasis on using roundup weed killers instead of manual labor to extract weeds for focused areas, such as a garden. But I was impressed with their video recordings specifying what they did on each visit, and they have a modern communication and billing system with some evidence of AI assistance.
