Besides designing, installing and maintaining landscapes, we are involved in many other things about which we thought you might like to know.

Sheppard Pratt Health System

Natural Concerns worked with the Head of Sheppard Pratt to design a multi-sensory therapeutic garden outside of the Eating Disorders Center. Built around a small patio where patients could sit, relax and meditate, raised gardens were installed so that the patients could grow their own vegetables and herbs. In addition, large specimen trees, plants and boulders were carefully selected and sited to take full advantage of their ability to be a part of the treatment process.

The Odyssey School

Designed with the look of an old southern plantation, this newly constructed building required careful plant selection and placement to complement the architecture. Working with the Head of School, Natural Concerns graded and planted the entrance to create a welcoming front door, and selected native plantings that the students could help install behind the school.

The House of Ruth

Natural Concerns first became involved with The House of Ruth doing landscape maintenance. Finding that giving back to the community in this way was therapeutic for the staff doing the work, Natural Concerns teamed with the St. George’s Garden Club to create a beautiful garden for the employees and residents to enjoy. 

The Jemicy School

When Jemicy School began their plans for the new High School in Towson, Natural Concerns was brought in as a consultant for the selection of plants for the new campus. They also designed and installed the plantings in front of the Lower and Middle Schools to create a welcoming entryway.

The Lab School

Located in downtown Baltimore, The Lab School’s front yard suffered from years of urban wear and tear. After removing the cement hardscape, hauling away accumulated debris and washing the sidewalks and street, Natural Concerns created a welcoming greenspace entryway by installing bluestone, boulders, sod and native perennials.
