Mission

Our mission is to bring the beauty and serenity of nature into the heart of the city by creating a bit of Zen in our urban environments. Too many new houses in Chicago are focused on square feet of home, lot line to lot line, and do not allow for much if any outdoor space, which results in a lot of indoor time. Most of us native Chicagoans spend the winter months inside due to the cold weather and come March, we are suffering from severe cabin fever. What better way to enjoy our urban environment than to create a bit of PlantZen in our own backyard, walkway, porch, or rooftop? A small garden designed to your liking may allow you to catch your own little bit of outdoor Zen. Or a large outdoor space can be transformed into a "new room," where you can relax and enjoy the birds and butterflies flittering through your own piece of Zen. Why not transform your green space into an area that makes you want to read, play with your children or pets or simply enjoy the wonderful beauty of a well planned garden.
